I hope I don't sound too conspiratorial, but I found this in today's Wall Street Journal. It sounds strange.

"U.S. Commerce Department Inspector General Johnnie Frazier joins list of IGs under fire. Whistle-blowers say he inappropriately mixed personal and business travel -- including trips to Boston and Atlantic City -- and wasted money on office renovations. In memo to IG workers, Frazier says, "I have every confidence in the eventual outcome of these inquiries and look forward to their speedy resolution." -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University Chico, CA 95929 Tel. 530-898-5321 E-Mail michael at ecst.csuchico.edu michaelperelman.wordpress.com
