> I learned a lot from this tour, and it wasn't just about MAD, or the people who worked there, or how they coped with an absurd world. It was about how to go to places you shouldn't be. That is, if you act like you belong somewhere, people will usually let you in and possibly even do things for you.

A Social Engineering classic, iirc...

In the same vein, MAD #64 famously had a cover that was made to look like the cover of a composition book, so that you could read it in school.
