This Friday evening, screw The Hobbit–that’s apparently not going to be very good. (Sigh.) Instead, come to hear me speak at the Full Circle series! I guarantee that it will be the only talk you hear that includes both forgotten economists from the 1960s and Master/Blaster from Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome.
