Summers chokes back laughter over IMF name change

biz.yahoo.com

Secretary Lawrence Summers barely able to contain his laughter...''With respect to the renaming,'' Summers said choking back more laughter, ''To change something obviously in this way conveys a message from the fact that this committee has met for 25 years as the 'Interim Committee' so it seemed appropriate for a committee that has met for so long to finally have an official name.''

...
Summers, who was viewed as a wooden figure when he took the reins at Treasury in July, has relaxed in his public appearances recently. Earlier this week he used an appearance at Yale University to poke fun at his robot-like repetition of the ''strong dollar'' policy he inherited from his predecessor Robert Rubin.



hmmmm.
