I take a conservative, evangelical, economistical look at things. I will be posting intermittently, for reference rather than daily reading. My Wordpress site from before 30 September 2007 is at http://rasmusen.org/x. It is searched from the search engine below(not above).
From National Review:
Finally, a colleague sent me a YouTube video of Licia Albanese, the famed soprano. Apparently, the video was shot last summer, when she was 95 (not 100, as the text says). Watch her nail (pretty much) an A flat. It starts to sag a little, but it is awfully good. And she releases it like a true pro. Go here. Enjoy.

I've set up this blog for myself, as a commonplace book, with the idea that it might also be useful for outside readers. That is why the topics are idiosyncratic. I see that most of my readers are directed here by Google searching rather than being regular readers.
I will delete rude comments, and will give less leeway to anonymous comments than to signed ones. I will for now at least allow stupid and ill-informed comments, though other readers don't enjoy them unless they are so ignorant as to be funny.
I will revise my posts freely, usually without any note that they've been revised. If I make an important mistake in a post that I think people might refer to, I will note the mistake and correction. But I'm not trying to make this a historical record. In fact, I'd like to merge posts on the same topic and delete posts not of interest a year later, except that I never get round to doing that.
