European Tribune - Comments - (Yet another) probably incredibly unreadable modelling thread

(Yet another) probably incredibly unreadable modelling thread | 68 comments (68 topical, editorial, 0 hidden)

If you are insisting on a linear model why not spend a couple of hours in a library researching away? I would be very surprised if research wouldn't uncover an existing, perfectly adequate, linear model. (Tho, amusingly, when I googled for ["Peak Oil" + Leontieff] the top item was a comment on EuroTrib.) Just how that linear model corresponds to the prototype is, of course, a good question. My prediction: Not Much.

Re: Reinventing the Wheel? (none / 0)

Migeru has a comment above that shows I failed to grasp his purpose.

I'd request everyone troll-rate my comment but then I'd deprive him of the opportunity to tell me I'm an idiot. ;-)

My purpose is to reinvent the wheel. I can't learn anything otherwise. Maybe one day I'll invent a wheel that is original.

Re: Reinventing the Wheel? (none / 0)

I am not interested in the linear model, I am interested in the web of processes, inputs and outputs that's behind the Leontieff analysis.
