Time for Fall Break here at Belmont. I plan to play a little golf, work in the yard, and tackle a rather tall stack of mid-term papers my students just turned in. So until I'm back at it next Monday, I'll leave you with a Ronald Reagan quote my Dad passed along to me this week. By the way, just so you know where I get my Luddite tendencies from, he printed it off from an e-mail and sent it to me via snail mail -- the acorn certainly does not fall far from the tree.....
"Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it."
