You said it yourself Paul, there were other economists playing important roles in the studies you were involved with 30 years ago. This was a solo prize awarded to one and only one economist. Think the Nobel committee knew you were not alone in this work? Think they cared?
Dude... you're an economist. Remember math? 2 + 2 = 4. Except maybe at the New York Times, yeah I know. Okay, but you know that the election is three weeks away, the Nobel Committee has expended a lot of prizes over the last eight years in their effort to admonish those who might support Bush, and to generally speak to the world of their royal displeasure with our president and republicans in general.
They picked you first Paul, and then justified the prize after confirming that you did something, anything reasonably intellectual 30 years ago. But if the prize were really for economics, Paul, there would have been a few more names included. Deep down inside, I think you know.
