Lorelai: Wow. Harvard is over 300 years old.
Rory: Founded in 1636.
Lorelai: That means almost everyone who ever went to Harvard is dead now. You sure you still wanna go here?
Rory: Yes, I'm sure.
Lorelai: They developed the pacemaker here. Also discovered how electromagnetism and radioactivity are two manifestations of the same force and postulated existence of a charmed quark. I was wondering who did that.
Rory: The smarties at Harvard.
Lorelai: Holy smokes. They get an average of 18,000 applicants every year, and only 2,000 get in. Those are not good odds.
Rory: Mom.
Lorelai: No, no, you're different.
