Told Ya So

In my last post, I characterized the attendees at this economics conference as being geeks.  Least there be any doubt about that, yesterday was also the 125th birthday of the Producer Price Index.  Who knew?  So guess who had a birthday party?  The PPI, of course!

Then, we sang:
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday, dear P . . .P . . . I
Happy Birthday to you!

Name calling is seldom appropriate, except as a term of endearment, and this is!
