Appreciative murmurs ran through the auditorium when food writer José Oneto showed slides of classic dishes made with ham. And Carlos Infantes, of the European Institute for the Mediterranean Diet, got understanding laughs when, in a talk...

In short, Nesson has something of a track-record for causing trouble with unauthorized recordings. In the fall of 2001, he drew fire after he posted online a heated e-mail correspondence between two colleagues. When one of the men, Law School professor Alvin C.
