This past weekend was The Head of the Charles Regatta at Harvard. Annually people gather to walk along the riverbank, watch the boats move languidly along the water. Everyone is dressed in jeans, tan jackets, wrapped in scarves, looking like an LLBean catalog. There is an unusually high proportion of tall, good-looking men with steel [...]
