You're probably right, but I've always given SGC more credit for the 19th Century cards.

Who is better, the economist who predicted two of the last four recessions or the economist who predicted six of the last four recessions?

Is there a joke in there or a reference that I'm not getting? 6 of the last 4 recessions? Did you mean 4 of the last 6 recessions?

He means the economist predicted 6 but there were only 4.

I'm actually amused by that. I sincerely hope it is generating some revenue for Leon, helping this website remain up and financially viable, so the misdeeds of PWCC can be freely discussed and communicated with all - site members as well as other folks just dropping in to see what's going on. I hope Leon leaves it up there.

In fact, I'd like to see PWCC buy some ad space over at blowout, too. That's another site that should be supported by advertisers.
