European Tribune - Comments - Paul Krugman Wins "Nobel"

Paul Krugman Wins "Nobel" | 70 comments (70 topical, editorial, 0 hidden)

ET should pen a congratulatory "letter" to him that we can all sign, and invite him to "speak" at ET in a live interview. Good idea? Pie in the sky bullshit?

Re: Way to go, Krugsey! (none / 1)

I like your idea.

Re: Feel free to do it (none / 0)

Hi "Boss". Give me a specific "what to do" list and I'll get it done. Itemize please.

Write a letter including ... etc.
Submit by (fill in date) for ET editing ... etc.
etc

Again, tell me what to do and I'll get it done.

No boss here (none / 0)

Just do the ground work, and submit it to other ETers for their reaction.

Re: No boss here (none / 0)

Sounds good.

One note: I am NOT a writer! Whatever I/we come up with, I want it to have the best chance of getting Krugsey to ET. Bottom Line: Give me hell! I'm a big boy; I can take the criticism.

I WANT THIS TO WORK!

Later (in a few hours).

Will be going on my morning walk to the Sac State campus shortly; waiting for the sun to come up; will use my walking time to plan my letter writing strategy; will post strategy when I get back (around 9 AM my time).
