Professor Schreiber shows us that Orgo can be fun, once you can get past the necessary memorization, once you have true understanding. You begin to develop a fascination with how life is built, using your previously-acquired morass of knowledge to appreciate the processes that so miraculously make up your efficient system...
Only at the end did it all come together. In a masterly six-hour summation, U.S. Attorney Henry DePippo crafted a cohesive argument out of the morass of evidence.

If, on paper, there is no deficit, then the amendment is moot. Nebulous government statistics would become even more bewildering, and accountability would sink amid a morass of bogus technicalities. The amendment would only provoke the government's further abdication of the very budgetary responsibility it was designed to foster...
