correction, foundation

I should drop by these parts more often, I know. Right now I want to correct an erroneous story the Huffington Post has circulated lately,

It is, in fact, the Harvard Coop-- a college bookstore operated by Barnes and Noble-- that tried to have students arrested for copying down textbooks' ISBNs in order to help folks buy them more cheaply elsewhere.

The independently owned, and rather good, Harvard Book Store has done no such thing, even though the Huffington Post ran a picture of the Harvard Book Store's shop window and put "Harvard Bookstore" into the headline. Whoops.

Lately I'm blogging here and teaching here. I'm enjoying both, so far.

As you have discovered, from time to time the "Headlines" here get very creative with the facts. Often such creativity is removed if you take the time to point it out.
