On the occasion of Jonathan Bowden's untimely death, I posted a short piece in remembrance at the Nine-Banded Books blog. It now occurs to me that no one reads the 9BB blog, so I thought it would be well to provide the above link for those of you who might be interested.
As you know, I am one of those readers who didn't care for it. Still, death sucks.
I would have thought of it differently had I known he was eighteen when he wrote it.
A quote from Keynes often repeated by Daniel Kuehn seems appropriate: "Words ought to be a little wild, for they are the assault of thoughts on the unthinking".
Alex Kurtagic seems a weird dude.

Apt. Perfect, in fact.
Am I a Keynesian now?

We all are, and yet nobody is a Keynesian.
