10:23:39 madamab Aeryl - it hasn't been published yet but it's appearing on the list. Let me publish it now.
09:49:37 lambert What error, aeryl?
08:49:20 Aeryl How come I'm not allowed access to MadamaB's post "It's dead, Jim"

20:34:12 BDBlue JeffW, one of the strengths of the book is suppose to be its accessibility for us non-economists.

04:51:57 Jeff W I'd read it (even though economics is not my strong suit).

Versailles Projection Syndrome

The tendency, shared by all wingers, to project their own thoughts, motivations, desires, and feelings, which they cannot admit to themselves, onto others. In psychology, a defense mechanism. Anticipated in the Christian Gospel: "And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?" (Matthew 7:3 KJV)Originated here here. Usage example: "Sean Hannity titled his book Deliver Us From Evil. That's a fine example of WPS in action."
