...kids on the set didn't go "Hey Ryan, it's fellatio!" They didn't know either, and these are pretty hip New York kids. They'd seen the pictures and they knew what it all looks like but they hadn't done it. And there's a quantum leap between knowing and being there.

...time to realize that this Great Leap Quadward, with its glorious rationalization of society and shuttle times, has failed as miserably as backyard iron smelters. Although the schedule has fixed some mid-day shuttle droughts, Quadlings' convenience would best be served by reverting to the greater number of shuttles at hard-to-remember but useful times rather than maintaining the revised schedule. The next time (and hopefully it will be soon) that the council and House Committees lobby to change the shuttle schedule, we hope that it will consult more of the actual students affected. After all, the Quad...
