Lesson: if you want a perch at the NYT, want a Nobel and rub elbows with al gore and such, but be full of wrong info and errors, go to the Princeton economics department, get ph.d, develop equations no one understands. You will enthrall the chattering classes, the members of which are on the whole dunces. On the other hand, If you want to make money, get it right, then read SI, Jesse, zh and He Who Is All Darkness, not to mention Faber and Rogers. Oh, and memorize the French book, there are valuable lessons in every sentence. |
