Thanks Patrick,
I especially enjoyed "This sales technique, reminiscent of
pre-Reformation Catholicism, is not surprising in a publication named
after the social science most given to wild guesses and imaginary facts
presented in the guise of inevitability and exactitude."
It reminded me of the 60's saying "If all economists were laid end
to end they would all point in different directions." Which in turn led
to "If all the girls from Redacted College were laid end to end I
wouldn't be surprised".
