Pretty cool, but still not MIT level. They'd find something to do with the spires of the chapel -- they're just begging for it.

I'm just glad that the Academy, like MIT, allows such stunts.

you mean like this, done on the MIT campus?

Of course, even the MIT folks are pikers next to the annual "stacking" competition at Caltech.

But the ultimate, for me, are the grand things the Stamford students do to the statue of Father Junipero Serra alongside Rt 280 on the SF peninsulla (the ugliest statue in the world). I personally saw both the propeller beanie on his head and the "yo yo" hanging from his finger.

here's Father Serra without his adornments. You can picture what he looked like during each of those episodes. Particularly rising out of an SF fog early in the morning. The yo yo was made from one of those big reels that the phone and cable companies use.
