...streamlining of actual events. Upset about being portrayed as floundering morally next to Bergman's shining knight, Wallace fumed, "oh, how fortunate I am to have Lowell Bergman's moral tutelage to point me down the shining path."

Some seem to think that the "perfect" cone is some sort of man-sized frozen spiral, a structural wonder whose height is bounded only by the distance from the fro-yo spout to the floor. In today's Dairy Queen world, such an attitude is not surprising--which doesn't make such twisted monstrosities any less apalling.
