OK, Sir Andrew, you're on. Send me the papers you think I ought to have read, tho, becaue I really and truly have no time to sit in a library right now.
And are you sure this list is the right place for me to oblige you? Maybe Sven's Capital Reading Group would be more appropriate. But suit yourself.
