Two years ago, I would have agreed with you about the angel situation - it was pretty dorky and very clumsy. But something big has changed here very recently and the energy is unlike anything you saw when you lived in Cambridge, Paul. I assure you, there is a substantive tangible energy in the air around town these days.

Whether that translates into anything big still remains to be seen.
