Several ARPANET/Internet people are mentioned in the article, and of 
course Harvard was an early ARPANET site.

(Also, if I remember correctly, Harvard's IMP was the destination for 
all packets during an ARPANET routing failure caused by a bad memory bit 
that led to additional check summing in the IMP code. Not Harvard's 
fault, of course.)
