Re: Re: Rosenfield on Joskow



"Here is a professor in a college, who gets $2,500 a year and has to spend
$3,000 to keep from starving to death, who walks up to his classroom in an
old pair of shoes and some idiot of a boy drives up and parks a $5,000
automobile outside and comes in and gets plucked. Then because that
professor teaches that boy that there is something wrong with the social
system, we call him a Bolshevik and throw him out."

Some things never change. Speaking of which, I am presently reading a 1971
Institute for the Future report titled "The future of the telephone industry
1970-1985" written by Paul Baran and Andrew Lipinski and wonder if anyone
here has some insight on Baran's work in this area at that time.
