But it wasn't my fault! I copied the name from the Foreign Affairs article, because I didn't want to fool around with the little squiggle over the n. It never occured to me to look at how they spelled his name - and it turns out they misspelled it. Such are the vagaries of cut n paste, which is obviously the downfall of civilization as we know it. <BR/><BR/>Luckily, I caught it as I was looking at it and spelled it right. Sorry about that. Never trust Foreign Affairs.Roger Gathmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11257400843748041639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3077210.post-1152226458510899602006-07-07T00:54:00.000+02:002006-07-07T00:54:00.000+02:00Brian, you are talking about everybody's fave econ...Brian, you are talking about everybody's fave economist, Dean Baker, who still comments frequently at Max Speak -- which site, incidentally, has a very nice post on Obrador.Roger Gathmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11257400843748041639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3077210.post-1152216316708802862006-07-06T22:05:00.000+02:002006-07-06T22:05:00.000+02:00Slightly off-topic, but this piece reminds me of t...Slightly off-topic, but this piece reminds me of the old Tom Paine Online (or something like that) where they basically went through business section headlines and reporting, skewering the biases, conventional wisdom, and outright fallacies that pass(ed) for unquestionable truth. The horror stories about leftish Latin American governments were always a favorite topoic. Bravo, roger!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
