"Forecasting" the 2002 Noble Memorial Prize in Economics

[Bill Dickens]

Well, it's that time of the year when Nobel Prizes are announced.  Last year
I was half-correct in predicting that Janet Yellen would win but the
rainmakers in Oslo decided to go with her husband George Akerlof.  This year
I will go out on a limb and predict that the field of experimental economics
will be recognized with the pioneers Vernon Smith and Charlie Plott reaping
top awards.  Honorable Mention - William Baumol.
