„Dawidoff takes pleasure in this information, and I did, too Of Shura he writes. "[He] had a party (the Democrats); a team (the Red Sox); a player (Ted Williams); a board game (chess); a breed of dog (Labrador retriever); a flower (pink rose); a lower body haberdasher (he sent to a Vienna tennis shop for white linen trousers); an upper body haberdasher (he ordered his wool plaid lumber jackets and matching caps from a hunting supply outfit in Maine); a brandy; a chocolate bar; an aspirin; a bullet; a pencil; a shaving soap; a foreign bookstore; a domestic bookstore; a barber; a newsstand (he would go miles out of his way to buy his periodicals from Sheldon Cohen at Out of Town News); and a weekly news magazine (L'Espresso)." And of course he had a school, Harvard, which he loved beyond all measure. Gerschenkron's calculus was simple: the US was the best nation on earth, and Harvard its best school. He thrived there.“

Virtual Coffee: Update on Roasting at Home
„Two days after I delivered my last article to VirtualCoffee, titled "Home Coffee Roasting", I received a Williams & Sonoma mail-order catalog and saw an item called the Fresh Roast Coffee Roaster for $150, which I immediately ordered. Five days after I received that model I received a competing brand as a complimentary sample from Hearthware. So, before my article, which recommended using hot air popcorn poppers for coffee roasting, could even be put onto the Internet, it was outdated.
