RE: FINGERS OF FURY

Paul, I love Captain Fingers, too. But as I mentioned, I’d e-mailed those haughty UTA boys after finding the same paper yesterday. I didn’t post said paper (from 2003) because their 10 percent conclusions (which were really just a summary of conclusions other economists had reached) had been mentioned (although not by name) in the DMN story I linked to. So, we should mock the News when needed, but give it credit for bringing that up and getting reaction to it right away after the announcement. (And the DMN story was posted by, like, 2 p.m. yesterday.) I. J. S.
