We only bring it up to remind ourselves that people love lines. In Russia, before they abandoned communism, if people saw a line forming, they’d get in it… figuring that there must be bread or cucumbers, or maybe a list where they could sign up to buy a car, at the other end. In Paris and London, people wait in line to get into nightclubs. And in America, the line of young people trying to get into Harvard, MIT or Johns Hopkins is unbelievably long.
