Median household rents skyrocketed by 70 per cent during the '60s, and the ever accelerating stream of students and young professionals moving into Cambridge indicated there was little chance of future relief. The city's rules exempted only owner-occupied dwellings with less than four rental units, federal- and state-subsidized housing, and all housing built after 1968.

...charge the real villain, the expense account meal. If so, Carter's instincts were true. Bernard De Voto, writing eloquently back in 1951 about the glories of the martini, explained: "The martini is a city dweller, a metropolitan.
