Sigh, another near insane idea being proposed. Yes, now there's a move to ban smoking in private houses. Go sign the petition against this idiocy please. Comment is Free does have a use! An excellent piece looking at the numbers being bandied about concerning the commercial sex industry. Yes, we're on the damned lies and statistics continuum here. Calling the top of a market (as opposed to knowing that there will be a top) is a risky business. But could Damien Hirst be calling the top of the contemporary art market? Political careers tend not to survive you becoming a punch line, do they? Looking at Deirdre McCloskey's new book: the economic take off of the Industrial Revolution is best explained by a combination of the thoughts of Adam Smith and Joesph Schumpeter. The National High Tech Crime Unit has lost control of the website of the umm, National High Tech Crime Unit. And finally, too good not to note again.
