This has got to be useful to somebody here: Robert Mundell,
the winner of the economics Nobel (actually given by the
Bank of Sweden, I believe) is my brother-in-law. All I know
about his work is what I learned scanning and HTMLing his
"International Economics," now on his Columbia U. web site.
It's supposed to be a classic, perhaps it is. Making zillions
of tiny graphics of the equations sucked. Maybe they were
bona fide, maybe just lipstick. A dismal science, some say
of economics, but, but, and this is where an architect starts
to drool, he's getting nearly a million bucks to take home
to hide from the IRS. Come here, Bob, my best relative in
the whole world, let me build you a disappearing vault.
