Retired teacher of law, economics, history, AP government, psychology and science. Former speechwriter, press guy and legislative aide in U.S. Senate. Former Department of Education. Former airline real estate, telecom towers, Big 6 (that old!) consultant. Lab and field research in air pollution control. My blog, Millard Fillmore's Bathtub, is a continuing experiment to test how to use blogs to improve and speed up learning processes for students, perhaps by making some of the courses actually interesting. It is a blog for teachers, to see if we can use blogs. It is for people interested in social studies and social studies education, to see if we can learn to get it right. It's a blog for science fans, to promote good science and good science policy. It's a blog for people interested in good government and how to achieve it.

“Alone among economists…”
I get the sense that they are all alone, and they don’t get much attention until their weird predictions come true.
How many other economists have unique predictions that haven’t come true? Is there an economic turn that no one has predicted?
Less impressive when you think about it that way. I skipped it in the print version, reading their ugly NOLa charter school puff piece instead.
