[PEN-L:9034] Re: Spelling "Socialismus"

[Rosser Jr, John Barkley]

     Heck, I'll butt in here.  Louis P. asked me off list 
to use my near minimal influence with Jerry to get him to 
calm down.  Since Louis P. has been cooperating with 
everybody on pen-l here lately, I'll cooperate back.  So, 
here goes.
     Please calm down, Jerry.
     More generally I would urge you to think about my 
forthcoming post on M-I about the social virtue of 
tit-for-tat strategies in repeated prisoner's dilemma 
games.  By all means, if somebody jerks you around, jerk 
back.  But, if they indicate a willingness to cooperate, by 
all means, please, make an effort to cooperate back and not 
generate all the negative externalities of an endless flame 
war.
