February 20, 2007 (A Reminiscence)

We have been remiss in recounting the first triumph of the Projekt: winning the approval of Program Head Professor Michael S. Mahoney. On the Monday of the Projekt's inception, we cornered Professor Burnett in his office after class, but he was quite unwilling to "humiliate himself on the internet" until we could prove that Professor Grafton was willing to do the same. As he spoke these words, however, Professor Mahoney happened to be walking past.
"Professor Burnett could use some humiliation," he quipped as he strolled past.
We pounced.
"Ah, Professor Mahoney! Would you be willing to set a precedent for your fine colleague?"
He was more than happy to oblige, posing for not one, not two, but three photographs with the Leibniz.
Burnett steadfastly held out for Grafton, and the results of this particular adventure have already been related.
