Thanks Michael, sweet that you went to the trouble. I don't know why I thought it was Keynes who coined the term. I swear there was a long convoluted, but entertaining, discussion of Keynes' use of the term here or on Pen-l. Joan Robinson's name came up, too. Oh wait, that is descriptive of 35% of the threads on this list.
:)
Also, 'fore I forget: Yes, Gar, I know I'm lucky. I don't know many who'd lurk on this list with the insouciance he demonstrates.
well, back to work. I shall resurface when deadlines loom and the pressure is on. heh.
Oh, wait, for the Latinophiles on the list, and for Jeffrey Fisher, I stumbled over this:
Glurgeo, I glurge. Glurgere, to glurge. Glurgui, I have glurged. Glurgitum, it has been glurged.
Glurgere humanum est, delere divinum est.
To glurge is human, to delete them is divine.
Vivamus atque glurgeamus.
Let us live, and let us glurge.
Glurgeo et amo. Quare id faciam fortasse requiris. Nescio. Fortasse nimium otii habeo.
I glurge and I love. Perhaps you ask why I do this. I do not know. Perhaps I have too much free time.
Arma virumque glurgeo. I glurge of arms and the man.
Si hoc glurgeum legere scis, operis boni in rebus Latinis alacribus et fructuosis potiri potes! If you can read this glurge, you can get a good job in the fast-paced, high-paying world of Latin!
Mitte hoc glurgeum omnibus amicis! Send this glurge to all of your friends!
