The story so far
Everything you need before watchingThe Winklevoss twins finally get into the Harvard president's office to complain that Mark Zuckerberg stole their website idea. They quote the student handbook. Larry Summers yawns, asks his assistant to punch him in the face, and refuses to treat the dispute as university business. He tells them to invent a new project instead, then points them to the courts. Watch a masterclass in polite dismissal: every courtesy is a closed door.
