............a review in The Economist of the book Brothers Emanuel: A Memoir of an American Family (that would be Rahm, Ezekiel, and Ari), and came across this wonderful paragraph:
"Emanuel pere had a practice as a paediatrician, but the family was not materially wealthy; the children were privately schooled and any spare cash was spent on cultural outings. Passionate debate around the dinner table was the norm. Everyone was expected to be well informed and the boys were allowed to swear. Tempers could run high. A discussion of the 'Deer Hunter', a 1978 film, ended in a brawl. For all the chaos, though, there were rules: no prejudice, cruelty, or stupidity."
