Those "nasty latin words" are "ceteris paribus".
Thank you.
On a network full of experts the price of error is bandwidth.
There's no reason to get all sarcastic.
Dude. I wasn't being sarcastic. I meant it. Thank you. I used to say "scientists" in the above schtick, back in the day, and got a laugh, but "appropriate use" of academic resources went out with state subsidies of Internic, and scientists aren't as thick on the ground as they were then. :-). It seems that in an attempt not to call you a scientist, I called you something worse. :-). Anyway, I make mistakes. I forget, or ignore, my spell-checker. More to the point, I forgot most of my latin, and don't remember half of my economics. And, in general, autodydacticism, and 60's/70's state-school education, is a bitch. :-). Thanks for fixing the error. It's kind of like when somebody reminded me, when I was thirty-something that it's "remuneration", not "renumeration". :-). Its and it's still give me fits. See below for details...
