Abely passed the tradition down to his friend, Adam G. Kosberg ’00, currently a filmmaker in L.A. Kosberg and his group, choosing Jim Beam instead of Jack Daniels, introduced their own spin on the ritual.

But Oregon's Ron Wyden and Tennessee's Jim Cooper are convinced they have the answer to the nation's health-care crisis - if only they could get the key players on Capitol Hill to give their radical plan a hearing. "There's a real opportunity for a philosophical truce here that you didn't have in 1993," the last time Washington attempted to overhaul the health-care system, says Wyden.
