That founding date reminded me of Keynes's argumnent in the >Treatise that profit inflations are good for culture; he claimed >Shakespeare as an example, and the 1920s were pretty good too. But we've >been living through a great profit inflation since the early 1980s, and >what do we have to show for it? For one thing the emergence of Doug Henwood as a celebrity. At our co-op barbeque sunday night a friend mentioned having seen Doug being interviewed on T.V. and was exclaiming about how knowledgeable he is and how well he handled the interview. Then another friend mentioned that he had just bought a copy of Wall Street (the old hardcover edition, alas) and brought it out to show it off like a new toy. Now, I'm not implying that Doug is in the same league as Shakespeare . . . Regards, Tom Walker ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ #408 1035 Pacific St. Vancouver, B.C.
