Hayek vs. Keynes Sequel Sneak Peak at The Economist Buttonwood Gathering
Day: November 4, 2010
There are three guys in my group at my current job. One of them is my boss. He has a PhD in Physics and Applied math from Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology. The other guy in our group got his PhD in Chemistry from Moscow State University. Part of the reason I do not understand them is that they are way smarter than me. My insecurities were mitigated a little bit this morning when it dawned on me that they speak Russian to each other most of the time. It is very, very cool and it really makes me want to learn another language. I love it that we speak Spanish at home. Still, a whole lot fewer people around here speak Russian than speak Spanish. Kelly is well on her way to speaking French. Lorena says she is going to learn French, too. I think Christian and I should get on board to learn a third language, too. French might be good for Lorena and I, but Kelly and Christian are young enough that it would be great if they went on to Russian, Mandarin, or something else hard after they finish up with the French.
