...simply feel to make sure you've punched the right holes. As they cannot think, they cannot be impressed; they are clods. The only way to beat their system is to cheat). In the humanities and social sciences, it is well to remember, there is a man (occasionally a woman), a humane type filling out your picture postcards. What does he want to read? How, in a word, can he be snowed...
