Cola commentsBy Tom Smith
I liked "I'd like to teach the world to sing" better. Anyway, I'm diet Coke person myself. Now I can not drink
Pepsi and feel like I'm making a political statement.
Which reminds me, at my alma mater, Cornell, there is a tradition -- no honorary degrees, no commencement speakers. It just isn't done. Think about it: With all the graduation addresses you have heard, have you ever heard one that was memorable for something other than being bad? The commencement address at Yale Law School when I graduated was an offensive left wing rant. (I remember the studly Tony Kronman remained in his seat, refusing to join the standing ovation, even though he is hardly a conservative.)
