Estes ’07, meanwhile, has been busy working for Vitamin Water as a student representative. Last year, he brought a thousand bottles of the stuff to the Harvard-Yale tailgate, giving it out for free as a “non-alcoholic alternative” from the Newsweek-sponsored Current Magazine tent (Estes, a Crimson editor, is president of Current Magazine).

For every time you are triumphant, surviving the onslaught of countless bad guys, there are a thousand times where you can’t quite anticipate the movement of that horrible alien-creature-thing, and you slowly fall to the ground, a red film covering the screen as teeth, claws, and chainsaw blades meet your flesh.

And that, Miller says, is currently about $40 per bbl. Oil has shot way higher for perfectly rational reasons, from booming global demand to Hurricane Katrina's impact on refining capacity, but overseas producers have every incentive to boost supply at today's prices, says Miller, which should make up for existing shortfalls. "Barring an unforeseen event"?another Katrina...
