Ummmmm.... Lemme see here...Ooop, right. Sorry.
So I missed Arthur's squib, too, which was to follow your
above-misattributed remark with:

So Krugman is a sort of prima donna? Hogging the spotlight, upstaging
the other figures in the drama? Well, I dunno. If he just put out
stuff equitably reasoned in the highly qualified propositions and
tentative hypotheses of an academic paper on economics, most people,
even readers of the NYT, would never wade through it.
At least he writes readable prose, readable enough to merit
criticism. Better than extemporaneous rants posted to U-tube.
Afterthought: Maybe Krugman is more like Tiresias than Cassandra.
