I doubt there will be much self-censorship at a wine tasting event...
There's no such thing as a free lunch.
I plan to be there .... can we shout out
sarcastic comments whenever we like? That's
how economics workshops work ... 🙂
Nice of CBS and 60 Minutes to provide an example
of when a story should have ended up on the
cutting room floor just in time for this event.
