---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 09 Mar 2000 12:11:44 +0000 From: Tom Standage <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Borda, again FWIW, I went and read the discussion about my article on your list at eGroups, and I wanted to clarify something. My article arose from a talk given by Dr Saari at the AAAS meeting in Washington DC last month. The results he presented were from a paper published in "Economic Theory" (*not* the Journal of Economic Theory, which is different) in January. I spoke to Dr Saari after the talk and then wrote the article. (Some of those participating in the discussion seemed uncertain which journal the paper appeared in, and whether or not I had spoken to Dr Saari or just reviewed the article from its printed form.) By the way, I have recommended a couple of the letters we received on the subject for publication. I don't know whether the letters editor will choose them or not, though. Tom.
