At a press conference...
...posters showed the full range of Harvard swag. "I just got a BlackBerry last week. I dropped it in a garbage can on Saturday night. It's landed in a cup. The cup was half-full of beer. I no longer have a Blackberry," shared one conspicuous consumer. Another wouldn't have been impressed, and wrote in impeccable script (who needs to text?): "I love organic chemistry, and I don't mind that it has taken over my (social) life...
