As usual, with any post from Anita Cohen-Williams, we hear the welcome voice
of an adult, whose filial tale reminded me of my first trip to Chicago (1963).
While visiting the paleo-geology lab, I noticed a huge tome sitting on a table.
It's cardboard cover read:

_A Non-functional Approach to the Analysis of the Socioeconomic System of a
Large, Compact Aggregate_


Talcott Parsons
and
Edward Shils

With raised eyebrow and clenched teeth, I opened the first page to find myself
looking at the Chicago Telephone directory. Now if I can only remember the
title of my last article...
