...bright children, this is a grand Christmas show that has arrived before Thanksgiving. Story Theater's great and generous gift is that it awakens and delights the dramatic instincts of the child who lies dormant in each of us. ∙T.E.K...
...case of the 16 students, the rule lay dormant until mid-July, when Harvard, in the person of Archibald Cox, swore out complaints against four of them, including Ryan, for trespass at Harvard during the national student strike last May. At the time, many SDS members contended that the Harvard Administration had deliberately waited until the student body had departed from Cambridge before filing legal charges.

...check whether life processes were indeed occurring above the earth, he used a chemical called TTC, which changes rapidly from pale yellow to pink when attacked by the enzymes produced in active, living cells.

But when Parker collected airborne and presumably dormant samples of bacteria, algae and fungi and doused them with TTC, the chemical began turning pink in only 15 to 20 minutes the time...

An occasional line suggests that these fantasies are standard-operating-procedure. Mark speaks of the group...
