Default MIT story (was Electrolytic Cleaning)

Minor correction. As I understand it was in Harvard Square and some
years before 1953. I don't think the trolley ever ran outside the
Harvard football stadium.

Well ... in that form, it may be. The story as I heard it while
I was there was that it wasn't just *any* MTA trolley, but one outside
the Harvard football stadium -- just before the Harvard-Yale football
game let out. And the car was held up by a student standing in the door
asking the motorman artfully dumb questions.


Still -- I have no proof that it happened that way, either,
since it was supposed to have happened some years before I got there
(1960).

Enjoy,
