...fact, most council members are far more concerned by such "windbags" than the gentleman who penned last Friday's letter. For them, such people are not just a nuisance, they poison the work they are trying to accomplish. Council members understand better than anyone else the fact that the muck these people rake seems inevitably to find a quicker route to page one of The Crimson than any benefit they may bring students, a fact which is borne out (I am guessing) by the surprise with which most of you have read the accomplishments of the council that have been...

That way we can play with the Moon Muck, Dinosaur Excavation sets, and the Spell Charming kits!). Every time I open my e-mail box, I get another annoying, sleazy "vote for me" request. For example...
