Private Service Announcement

If any readers have borrowed my copy of "The Economics Of Input/Output Analysis", I need it back please. Update: Fucking seriously guys, please.

In unrelated news, one of the sublime bittersweet pleasures of an English Sunday afternoon is to sit back, listen to "Any Answers?" presented by Jonathan Dimbleby and appreciate the unique timbre of the tiny sigh he makes as about half of the callers greet him with "good afternoon David" and he resigns himself to the fact that he has given up correcting them about five years ago. I don't think that they have a word for it in German.

    I shall ring him at the first opportunity and address him as Richard.

    Not only can I not help with the book thing, but I've got a homework request of my own. Do you know a good short presentation of what's wrong with Levitt's crime/abortion argument? I've googled, and there seem to be approximately 60 zillion pages about it, which is approximately 60 zillion more than I want to read. (It's for a lecture I'm giving on Tuesday.)
