There are more than 22 million women over size 16 in America and that's a very good market." After the show, sales of large-size dresses soared 22%, sportswear...
Maybe we are outraged by Harvard's actions, but we're afraid of what the disciplinary consequences of protest might be.

Anticipating the federal fluorocarbon ban, Gillette and some other manufacturers last year began switching to pump-action containers for their products, but these do not emit the fine, even spray of Abplanalp's aerosol nozzles. If Aquasol passes market tests and proves as popular as aerosol, the nation's medicine cabinets could remain stocked with spray cans a long time into the future...
