Hi,
Wondered whether in your article re the 99/1%, the reference to Tainter’s book, “sanguine” you meant optimistic or pessimistic?
Thanks, Hugh R.

That’s the beauty of the word “sanguine.” Thanks for commenting, Christine MacDonald

Hello. Just a shot in the dark but did you live in Montevideo in the mis 80′s? There are striking similarities to a teacher I used to know and who showed me around the river plate back then. Anyway, if it is you – well done, if it isn’t – well done!!!

Hi Graham,
It wasn’t me! I’m afraid I haven been to Montevideo – yet! But thank you for your kind words. I’m glad you enjoyed the site.
Regards,
