Lyndon Larouche has been called many things. Fanatic. Conspiracy Theorist. Fascist.

Well, he's once again got his folks out in Harvard Square, advertising him, I believe, as a write-in Presidential candidate, and it looks like he's going through a new phase: Dadaist. Slogans on the posters include:

• If Americans understood Beethoven, would George Bush be President?
• No algebraic formula can prove the necessary existence of five Platonic Solids!
• Only classical singing can get Bush and Cheney the fugue out of the White House.

... and this rhetorical coup de grâce:

• If you can't double the cube, your degree is worthless.

Who could fail to be convinced?
