Alex, Jess, and I just went over to Harvard to check out their "protest." Apparently, low-level Harvard employees are underpaid and a bunch of students are protesting this. They took over a building for awhile but have now been forced out onto the yard, sleeping in tents, etc. At 5:00am there was only one person up.

Alex brought his wamp light and beamed a few tents with it while yelling, "wake up!" Not sure why he did that. Anyway, there was a significant amount of hack potential here. They had lots of signs up that were mostly pro-protest, but a few random markings like "Economic theory: they are not needed" [referring to the low-income workers, presumably]. Another sign mentioned how similar employees at MIT got paid more, and used the phrase "the environment at MIT is much better." We found this enormously funny. We're going to come back tomorrow night with markers and some choice signs of our own.

Uncle Dave sent me a big chunk of Flourite crystal in the mail, presumably in return for the halite core sample i sent him from WIPP last summer. I borrowed a blacklight from Alex but it did not make the crystal flouresce, unfortunately. I was going to buy some UV LEDs and make a glowing rock. But looks like that idea's not going to happen.
