Who's That Guy?
Twice now at FEE, I've been introduced to someone who has said to me, "I loved your book on the Great Depression."
Of course, I've written no such book, but who are they mistaking me for? Murray Rothbard? Bob Higgs? John Maynard Keynes? Any ideas?

People think I've said stuff that I really didn't, all the freakin time. Join the club.

Another author named Gene?

I am trying to think of a joke regarding your psychological condition, Gene. But nothing is sufficiently clever to post.
ReplyDeleteYes, they must be thinking of Smiley.

Maybe they're confusing you with that more well-known Callahan, Colleen?
