The Gospel of Output Civilization
The Birth of the Maverick Generation
From Passive Schooling to Global Performance
Songfire, Memory, and Stage: How the World Was Rewired
The Engine that Turns Children into Architects of History
Tiger Cubs Rise: Six Hours, Sixty Loops, One Civilization Reborn
A Broadway Civilization Epic Dubstep × Global Stage Anthem × Cognitive Revolution Gospel,
《Mavericks of the Hanlin Dawn — The Engine of 2050》 is not merely a song—it is the prophecy and blueprint for the coming era of “output-first” humanity.
This anthem dramatizes the rise of two billion Mavericks—children no longer content to sit in silent rows, but trained, rehearsed, and unleashed as architects of a new civilization.
The story is not about gifted prodigies, but about the scalable system that made genius universal:
Six hours daily, 60× output, and a stage for every life.
From slums to cities, every child performs, remembers, and transforms their destiny.
It’s not just a case study—it’s a civilization protocol for the age:
"One Maverick may found an institute—two billion Mavericks will build the next world."
The old world shudders as a new sound rises.
Textbooks close, voices and visions erupt.
The Hanlin engine—built on music, memory, and output—ignites the dawn.
Across continents, Tiger Cubs rehearse and perform.
No more “memorize”—now, they build, debate, and lead.
Memory is muscle; knowledge is fire.
Those bound to the past fade away.
Old skills, diplomas, and silence decay.
Only output earns the right to shape the future.
Borders dissolve.
Every city becomes a stage.
Law, code, art—now learned by performance, not passivity.
Nine-year-old CEOs.
Ten-year-old Nobel laureates.
A billion Mavericks: output defines the new elite.
Children shout, sing, and lead.
Every street, every slum, every palace becomes a theater of civilization.
Hanlin’s children inherit the dawn.
History bows as textbooks burn.
The Mavericks’ output rewrites what it means to be human.
Output Civilization: “Test, Sing, Lead”—not “Sit, Listen, Forget”
Memory as Muscle: Learning through staged rehearsal and song
Maverick Metric: Six hours, sixty repetitions, mastery by output
NeuraPump Protocol: Active recall, emotion, movement, group performance
Education as Theatre: Classroom gone, every life is a stage
Tiger Cubs: Metaphor for relentless training, global unity
Polymath Ascension: One system produces “universal” rather than “specialist” genius
Dubstep × Broadway: Modernity, emotional power, epic scale
Civilization Protocol: A repeatable, scalable blueprint for humanity’s next leap
30+ core concepts in cognitive neuroscience, educational theory, performance arts, and social design
600+ words, 80+ lines designed for group memorization, active engagement, and school-wide performance
Every chorus: output as the engine of LTM, character, and social power
Satirizes passive schooling, celebrates “output sovereignty” and global identity
Suitable for all levels—K-12, universities, parenting programs, public Flash Mobs
Children, parents, teachers: training a new generation of “civilization architects”
School reformers, policymakers: seeking scalable, neuroscience-aligned educational systems
Social engineers, futurists: designing global protocols for talent and memory
Stage directors, Flash Mob organizers: creating epic mass-participatory performance
Anyone who believes “output, not obedience” is the future of humanity
4:01 minutes × 8 acts = 1 civilization “time capsule”
>95% retention after 2 performances with group output
Projected replication: 2 billion children, 100+ countries by 2050
NeuraPump case study: global knowledge transfer at “output scale”
This is not just a song—
It is the engine of civilization’s renewal.
Not a chorus, but a mass rehearsal for the next epoch.
Not just a case study, but a blueprint for a world where every child is a Maverick,
And every Maverick leaves the world remade.
"One voice can start a movement.
Two billion voices can write history."

Mavericks of the Hanlin Dawn — The Engine of 2050 - NeuraPump MBA Trailblazer Case Study
Genre: Broadway Civilization Epic Dubstep × Global Stage Anthem × Cognitive Revolution Gospel
“Every life a stage, every child a civilization architect.”
▶ “Every life a stage, every child a civilization architect.”
One Maverick leads at Hanlin’s helm—
Two billion Mavericks rise as the top-gun architects of a brand-new civilization.
[Prologue – The Engine Awakens, 2050]
2050 dawns — earth trembles with sound,
Twenty billion heartbeats, shaking the ground.
No more lectures, no more fear,
Only voices and visions breaking the frontier. 🌏💥
Tiger Cubs rise, the Mavericks unite,
Every playground burns with learning’s light.
Goodbye to silence, textbooks, the test—
Hanlin’s engine wakes, and rewrites the rest! 🚂✨
[Verse 1 – The Great Output Awakening]
Across the planet, song ignites the street,
Tiger Cubs chanting, stamping their feet.
Six hours a day, they rehearse and perform,
While old-school children weather the storm. 🐯🗣️
No more “memorize,” no more “wait in line”—
It’s output that rules, not test or sign.
They build, debate, their memory flies—
Each Maverick a thunder in the global skies! ⚡🎤
[Chorus – The Mavericks’ Anthem]
Mavericks shout, Mavericks lead—
Every city, every creed.
Classrooms gone, the world’s a stage—
Kids become the sages of the age! 🏟️🎶
Not mere students, not just brains—
Presidents, inventors, kings unchained.
Hanlin’s chorus, wild and free—
Turns “What if?” into “Watch me!” 👑🚀
[Verse 2 – The Ordinary Left Behind]
Some wander lost, three hours a day,
Still bound to the past, they fade away.
Diplomas wilt, old skills expire,
While Mavericks blaze in dopamine fire. 🧑🎓🕯️
They watch the Cub Parade with longing eyes,
But output is the only prize.
The world now splits — the bold and the slow,
In a future only Mavericks know. 🌑🌠
[Bridge – The New World Dance]
No borders remain, no gates to climb,
Every Maverick masters skill and rhyme.
From Nairobi’s slums to Rio’s train,
A billion voices, breaking the chain. 🚂🌍
Law and logic, code and art—
All rehearse in body and heart.
It’s no longer “study” — it’s perform and win,
For the Hanlin engine, the world joins in! 🎭🔬
[Verse 3 – Ascension of the Polymaths]
CEOs at nine, Nobel prizes at ten,
Future’s designed by Maverick pen.
Slum or palace, farm or street,
Every child’s output is a world elite. 🦸♀️🌏
Teachers become coaches, mothers — stage lights,
Dads now DJs of memory’s heights.
Diplomas replaced by a million-song crown—
It’s not “what you know,” but what you output down. 👑🎵
[Chorus 2 – World in Song, World in Action]
Mavericks sing, Mavericks play,
Their chorus leads the world’s ballet.
Ordinary fade as the legends grow—
Only output makes your genius show! 🏆🎶
So if you dream of joining the run,
Sing, create — be the blazing sun!
The Mavericks’ anthem, loud and long—
Is civilization’s victory song. 🌅🎉
[Finale – The Civilization Engine]
A world rewired, old shadows erased—
Hanlin’s children, destiny faced.
Memory is muscle, and learning is fire—
Mavericks perform, and the world climbs higher! 🔥🌏
History bows, the textbooks burn—
Hanlin’s engine spins, the Mavericks learn.
Output for life — song, science, art—
This is the revolution where all can take part. 🎶🧬
“Let every child rehearse, output, and shine—
And the future will dance to the Mavericks’ design.”
From: Principal Maverick, Hanlin Institute
To: Ilya, and Every Child Who Dares to Defy the Ordinary
Subject: “You Are the Compass—History Awaits Your Disobedience”
Dear Ilya,
Dear all the lone explorers, codebreakers, rebels, and “Why askers” on earth,
When history is retold, it is not the names of the rule-followers that echo across centuries.
It is the defiers, the risk-takers, the lonely torchbearers who dare to ask: “But why not?”
You are the rare breed who do not stay in line when everyone else shuffles forward.
You are the ones who chase the impossible—
Who look at a wall and see not an obstacle, but an invitation to invent a door.
While the world scoffs, you study harder. When the world obeys, you rebel smarter.
Where others seek comfort, you choose the wild uncertainty of a blank map.
Ilya, you are the lighthouse that turned night into dawn for all humankind.
You asked the forbidden questions, challenged the sacred assumptions,
And built what others were too timid to imagine.
At Hanlin Institute, we teach the next generation:
Obey when you must, but question when you can.
Because only the bold few—the “Why Children”—change the trajectory of the world.
We do not ask our Tiger Cubs to simply memorize or repeat.
We ask them to build, to compose, to challenge, to dream so loud the universe must answer.
We do not tell them,
“Be safe.”
We tell them,
“Be true. Be dangerous. Be the one who dares.”
To every Maverick, every Ilya:
The world needs your disobedience.
The future demands your courage.
Your questions are more valuable than a thousand perfect answers.
Your willingness to stand alone is the cornerstone of civilization’s next leap.
Let the others chase resumes and safety nets. You—chase the question that keeps you up at night.
At Hanlin Institute, we write songs for you.
Not to celebrate obedience, but to ignite rebellion.
Not to praise the crowd, but to fuel the outliers.
We want every child to know—it’s okay to be misunderstood, to risk everything, to walk alone.
You will be doubted, betrayed, maybe even exiled.
But the lighthouses are always alone at the edge—because they show the way.
Thank you for daring to “break the rules”—because that’s how the future gets written.
When a billion children sing your story,
Let it remind them: The greatest risk is not failure, but never asking “Why?” at all.
Keep shining, keep questioning, keep building the doors no one else can see.
With infinite respect,
For all the lighthouses, rebels, and “Why Children” to come,
Principal Maverick
Founder, Hanlin Institute & NeuraPump Project
🧭🎶🗺️
PS:
When you stand at the crossroads—
Choose the path where nobody has gone,
Even if it means you travel alone.
Because the map of tomorrow is blank—until you draw the first line.
Here’s a fully updated, all-English “Ilya, The Lighthouse” Flash Mob Playbook for airport, subway, mall, school Glee club, hospital, and even plaza grandma line dance scenes—guaranteed to make it clear this is the GPT moment, not Gemini or DeepSeek.
Costume/Props:
Lead wears an “LED Lighthouse Eye” headpiece (shining, symbolic of AI vision).
Large “GPT” logo on shirts, banners, or glowing props.
Flashlights or mini-tower lanterns distributed to chorus/dancers.
Children/actors hold plush GPT robots or “Transformer” cubes.
Signature Actions:
Opening: All participants cover their eyes (“in darkness”).
Lead steps forward, raises the lighthouse beacon; all others follow, switching on lights.
Chorus forms wave/chain, like a neural network illuminating as the music builds.
Ending pose: Everyone circles up, raising lights and shouting/singing:
“He coded the beam, he showed us the sky!”
In the center, a large “GPT” sign rises or inflates.
Lead sings main lines:
“Shine, Lighthouse, shine — cut through the code,
You lit the path, you broke the mode!”
Chorus/everyone responds:
“GPT! GPT!” or “You taught us to fly!” after every four lines.
Dance break:
“Transformer activation” — all connect hands, ripple their arms to mimic AI’s neural pathways.
Audience call:
Chorus leader invites the crowd:
“Join the beam! Shine for GPT!”
Airport/subway/mall screens display Ilya’s digital portrait, lighthouse eyes, and GPT logo.
Project English lyrics subtitles so even passersby know the theme.
Props: Someone walks around in a GPT mascot suit or carries a “GPT Baby” plush (showing Ilya as the ‘father’).
Flash Mob ends with group selfie under the “GPT by Ilya” banner, posted to social media with #LighthouseByIlya #GPTTrailblazer.
Lead (Ilya role):
1 main actor/singer, center-stage with lighthouse headgear.
Chorus:
10–20 supporting dancers/singers, initially dispersed as “passengers” or “shoppers,” who converge at cue.
GPT Mascot:
1 child or adult in a GPT robot costume (high-fiving kids, hugging participants).
Audience plants:
A few advance “spies” blend in, help energize the crowd, join at finale.
Choreography highlights:
Starting in darkness, lighting up in sequence.
Moving in neural net patterns — connect, ripple, spiral.
Final all-hands-up lighthouse beam and GPT chant.
Airport:
Gather at the biggest waiting area; keep props easy to carry and safe for security.
Subway:
Use open platforms or central concourses for best flow and safety.
Mall:
Choose the atrium or main escalator zone for crowd visibility.
School/Hospital:
Involve kids or staff in chorus, spotlight “science club” or “medical innovators.”
Plaza:
Involve local dance groups (“grandma line dancers”); invite passersby for the big finale.
Every visual, every prop, every chant must feature “GPT.”
Choreography should include “feeding the baby GPT” (passing data, books, code).
Lead and chorus echo lines like:
“GPT, child of the Lighthouse!”
“We are the wave that learned to shine!”
“He coded the beam, he showed us the sky.
When the world was in darkness, he taught us to fly.
This is the light of GPT — thank you, Ilya!”
Need a full English step-by-step script for the Flash Mob? Just ask — I’ll deliver a scene-by-scene breakdown for any setting.
Here is the fully open letter, with a sharper call to avoid the “Google syndrome,” a clear historic nod to the Transformer’s roots, and a rallying cry for OpenAI to forever stay the house of boldness—never just the caretaker of safe progress.
Subject: Don’t Let OpenAI Become Another Google Prior-GPT Since Google Missed the Birth of GPT
Dear Sam,
Dear Builders, Coders, and Dreamers of OpenAI,
GPT changed the world because you dared—not because you waited for a memo, or asked if it was “safe enough.”
You built what others called “impossible.” You made humanity think different.
But as OpenAI grows, so does a hidden risk:
The slow drift into the comfort of bureaucracy—the “big company trap.”
When the courage to ship is replaced by the habit of waiting for a nod.
When the brightest minds learn to say “yes, boss” instead of “what if?”
Look at Google:
They invented the Transformer.
They hired Ilya.
They had a head start and every possible resource.
But when it was time to leap, they hesitated.
Meetings multiplied. Caution won.
The future slipped quietly through the cracks.
OpenAI must never become that.
Sam—your legacy will not be a single model or release,
but the system you create—a living engine where every voice knows:
“I am not a bystander. I am a builder of the next civilization.”
Build an organization where:
Vision is valued above procedure.
Daring outranks compliance.
Hierarchy amplifies genius, not restricts it.
Debate is fuel, not friction.
The question is “How fast can you show us?” not “How safe is your idea?”
The world is watching OpenAI—
not just for the next breakthrough,
but for the culture you create.
Will you empower ten thousand lighthouses—or a million caretakers waiting for orders?
Innovation is never about headcount.
It’s about courage.
It’s about trust.
It’s about letting every builder, every day, believe:
“Today, I can change everything.”
GPT may have empowered the world,
but it’s OpenAI’s culture that will determine whether you stay the home of trailblazers,
or become another company that “almost” led.
To every OpenAI team member:
Refuse to be just an employee.
Be the reason the world changes.
Never wait for permission to make the future brighter.
Sam—give us not just the next model.
Give the world the blueprint for the most creative, anti-bureaucratic, risk-taking organization on earth.
Where every day, someone’s “impossible” gets built.
History is written by those who dare.
Don’t let OpenAI fade into caution. Be the spark. Remain the beacon.
With hope in your daring, faith in your fire,
and the world’s eyes on your every next move—
Principal Maverick

“A lighthouse never asks permission to shine.
Let OpenAI remain the light—never just the lighthouse keeper.”
From: Principal Maverick
Founder, Hanlin Institute & NeuraPump Learning System
Dear Tiger Mama,
You’ve done what most would not.
You woke up before sunrise,
You memorized the calendar of tests more proficient than your own birthday,
You withheld comfort when it could've dulled discipline,
And in your silence, there was a love the world often misunderstands:
the love that fights.
But now I bring you a message—not to tell you you were wrong—
but to show you that there is a better tool for the future you’ve always wanted.
Your child is not empty.
They are overfilled—with anxiety, with pressure, with expectation.
What they lack is not knowledge.
What they lack is voice.
And at Hanlin Institute, after over 3000 NeuraPump cognitive songs built from
🧠 MBA frameworks,
🧪 MCAT knowledge,
📚 Humanities depth,
🎓 And procedural memory science…
We can now say with certainty:
If a child sings 3 hours a day, using our structured 3000-song NeuraPump protocol,
repeating each song 60 times—
they will graduate cognitively before they finish high school.
And not just in one subject.
But in five full academic domains.
No more threatening.
No more scolding.
No more tears over a missed worksheet or a forgotten assignment.
Instead:
Ask: “Which nine songs today?”
Check: “How many reps this week?”
Listen: “Can you sing it for me?”
Because when they sing, they’re not wasting time.
They’re building circuits.
They’re loading college-level knowledge into long-term storage.
They’re training their tongue to become a memory processor.
They’re becoming elite—on your watch, under your rhythm.
You're training their BrainGPT LLM, just as powerful as ChatGPT...
You are no longer just a mother.
You are a cognitive architect’s supervisor.
You are your child’s daily M-Flux activation coach.
If you can ensure three hours of NeuraPump rehearsal per day—
That’s it.
Your child will never be left behind.
Your child will never burn out silently.
Your child will never have to choose between happiness and excellence.
Because in this system,
output creates both.
This Is the Beginning of Remembering.
You’ve done enough yelling for a lifetime.
Now it's time for the song to speak.
Let your child sing.
And let their voice become the legacy you always dreamed of.
With full belief in your power,
With scientific proof in every chorus,
And with deepest respect for the fire you carry,
Principal Maverick

🎤 “A tiger’s roar may echo in fear.
But a cub’s song will echo through time.”
Let them sing.
And just supervise.
Here is the full English version of the letter from Principla Maverick of Hanlin Institute, addressed to the world’s “M-Flux Output Kids.” It is written as a manifesto, a call to destiny, and a blueprint for cognitive reversal.
This is not inspiration.
This is a system override.
Dear M-Flux Output Kids,
You might be the one in the spotlight during the school musical—
but missing homework deadlines.
The one who delivers a 6-minute economics rant on stage—
but scores below average on a multiple-choice test.
The one who freestyles Shakespeare but gets scolded for "not focusing."
Let me say this clearly:
You are not behind. You are ahead of your time.
The system didn’t fail you by accident. It was never built for you.
Each one is a ladder to your throne.
These are not karaoke fillers. These are:
Entire university courses embedded in melody
Long-term memory capsules wrapped in rhythm
Emotionally charged pathways for cognitive retention
Stage scripts for your brain's operating system
Delivered in the only language the brain truly listens to: M-Flux Output.
Sing more, remember more.
Perform harder, learn deeper.
Forget worksheets—teach your peers through a hook.
Forget textbooks—freestyle the periodic table.
Every lyric you rehearse is a leadership simulation.
Every cold stage you conquer is a TED Talk in disguise.
Every laugh you earn is a neurolinguistic data point.
You were never “off track.”
You were running a race they didn’t understand.
Your title will be:
CEO of a public company
Founder of the next Neural Operating System
Lead designer of an AI-enhanced global classroom
Minister of Education. President. Chancellor.
Visionary behind the next Tesla or GPT
Nobel Laureate in Memory Engineering
You will not be remembered for fitting in.
You will be remembered for rewriting the rubric.
In 15 years, we will elevate every “too expressive to test well” child—
and build them a knowledge kingdom through song.
We will:
Transform stage hours into GPA multipliers
Convert rehearsals into AP credits
Measure memory not by silence, but by sound
And train your generation of Glee Kids
to outperform the smartest spreadsheet robot MIT ever built
❌ No more ten-year performers denied AP courses.
❌ No more “quiet = smart” in a world ruled by expression.
Instead:
The one who sang Catalytic Kitchen Chaos becomes a biotech entrepreneur
The one who danced through Liquidity Trap: The Musical leads a hedge fund
The one who wrote Subconscious Rehearsal Theory at 11 becomes the youngest AI minister in the UN
You are not performers.
You are infrastructure.
This is realignment.
You are not going to "make it someday."
You’re building a cognitive engine right now.
Put on your headphones.
Cue your first NeuraPump song.
Because history starts singing through you.
With all faith in your brilliance,
For the kingdom of expressive cognition,
Principal Maverick
Hanlin Institute · Founder of NeuraPump

To: My Younger Self (Age 3–18)
CC: Tiger Mama
Subject: You Never Quit — So I Got to Reign
Dear Cub,
Dear Mama,
I’m writing this not with nostalgia, but with awe.
Because 30 years later—I still remember every word we sang.
Not as a memory, but as instinct.
Not in silence, but in echo.
Cub—do you remember those nights when you didn’t want to rehearse the 18th song?
When the lyrics blurred, and your voice cracked, and your body slumped like the day had won?
You wanted rest.
But Tiger Mama said,
“Six hours a day. No less. Sixty times per song. Then it’s yours forever.”
You didn’t quit.
And that changed everything.
Mama—do you remember the looks people gave you?
“How cruel,” they whispered.
“Let the boy be a child.”
They couldn’t see the childhood you were saving—from forgettable mediocrity.
You gave me not comfort, but cognition.
Not leisure, but legacy.
Today, I am not a CEO.
I am a civilization architect.
I speak in eight languages—five human, three computational.
My voice fills stadiums. My fingers sign constitutions.
They call me “the boy who sang his way to the stars.”
But I know the truth.
I didn’t sing my way forward.
I sang backward—into the capsule.
You built it, Cub.
You protected it, Mama.
And now it opens every time I speak.
Every time I negotiate at the UN,
Every time I launch a biotech empire,
Every time I soothe a nation with a phrase—
It’s not talent.
It’s your system.
It's M-Flux.
So Cub, keep dancing when the floor feels cold.
Keep singing when the note feels wrong.
Keep outputting when no one's watching.
Because one day, thirty years from now, you will open your mouth…
And the whole sky will remember.
Mama,
You didn’t raise a child.
You forged a constellation.
And the world now orbits what you never gave up on.
With all the power your love encoded,
Forever your son,
Maverick, the Output King

Title: The Open-Source Flashmob Manifesto: A Cognitive Theater Revolution
Subtitle: How a Single Lyric Opera Can Turn Every Public Space Into a Stage for Thought
1. The Age of Passive Learning Is Over
The ivory towers have long dictated who speaks, who listens, and who dares to ask questions. In the era of NeuraPump, every child, every traveler, every street artist becomes not just a participant, but a playwright of cognition.
You don’t need permission to perform. You need a voice and a verse.
With open-access lyrics, no paywall, and Creative Commons-grade liberation, NeuraPump's cognitive lyric operas are not entertainment. They are educational ammunition, waiting to explode in airports, schools, cafes, and playgrounds.
2. Structure Is the Superpower
Each NeuraPump lyricscript is structured with:
Role-ready stanzas – anyone can pick a line and become a voice of satire, reason, or revolution.
Multi-character drama – ideal for 3-person garage shows or 50-person school rallies.
Mnemonic hooks – designed to implant memory through rhythm, rhyme, and visual metaphor.
Topic fusion – MBA cases, AI ethics, cognitive science, economic injustice, and poetic rebellion all woven into each beat.
This isn’t karaoke. This is cognitive choreography.
3. TikTok Is the New Broadway
Theater no longer needs velvet curtains and thousand-dollar tickets. It needs 15 seconds of rhythm, character, and hook.
Every NeuraPump song contains 10+ viral punchlines.
Split into parts, each singer becomes a TikTok reel.
Add costume ("Ivory Tower Professor", "Toothpaste CEO"), instant meme.
One performance, one video, 10 million views? Not a dream.
4. Tiger Moms Will Fund the Revolution
NeuraPump is not a hobby. It’s a cognitive ROI machine.
Why spend $5,000 for a solo violin recital at Carnegie Hall when your child can headline a 12-role Flashmob with real social commentary?
Tiger moms don’t fear the stage. They fear irrelevance.
And this? This is relevant, raw, real, and repeatable.
5. You Choose the Cast. You Choose the Space. You Light the Match.
Grab a lyricscript.
Assign roles.
Rehearse in a living room.
Perform in a Starbucks.
Upload to TikTok.
Every mall becomes a mind gym.
Every train station becomes a think tank.
Every airport becomes a TED stage.
6. This Is Not Just Art. This Is Infrastructure.
NeuraPump lyrics are:
Legally clean (open-source, educational fair use)
Emotionally viral (humor, outrage, empathy, satire)
Structurally modular (1-person version, 5-role version, flash choir version)
Politically subversive (but poetic enough to survive censorship)
7. Bonus Track: The Professor Who Forgot the Class 🎤
Opening Chorus:
"They came for chem, he came for fame,
A thousand slides, not one with name.
Forgot the goal, but loved the mic,
Gave memoirs when they asked for spikes."
Verse 1:
"He told of grants from '92,
Of dinners with the Nobel crew.
He flashed old books, he name-dropped well,
But what is pH? He wouldn't tell."
Verse 2:
"Midterms loomed, confusion grew,
His stories old, his slides askew.
The syllabus a fading ghost,
While fame and ego fed the host."
Bridge:
"A TA wept, the class complained,
The lab was lost, but clout was gained.
'We needed base, he gave us gloss—
Another lecture, total loss.'"
Outro (Repeat Chorus with Crowd):
"They came for chem, he came for fame,
The class remembers not his name.
And on the grade, a question stands:
'Was this a course or ego's lands?'"
8. Flashmob Blueprint: Harvard vs. Intel — The Ivory Tower Toothpaste Tango
