From an obituary in this morning's online New York Times —
"John Tunney seemed to have a charmed political life until 1976,
when at age 42 he lost his Senate seat after just one term
to the unlikeliest of Republican challengers, a former Democrat
named Samuel I. Hayakawa."
Topology punchline —
"Sorry, but A is closed."
