The Eighteen-Year-Old is going to college next year, which means that I need to think about making more money. (The idea that one might write checks to rather than receive checks from universities is now strange to me.) So I have signed up with the Leigh Speakers' Bureau which also handles, among many others: Chris Anderson; Suzanne Berger; Michael Boskin; Kenneth Courtis; Clive Crook; Bill Emmott; Robert H. Frank; William Goetzmann; Douglas J. Holtz-Eakin; Paul Krugman; Bill McKibben; Paul Romer; Jeffrey Sachs; Robert Shiller;James Surowiecki; Martin Wolf; Adrian Wooldridge.
On $80 oil.
While almost everyone is focusing on the weakness in consumer spending and higher oil prices the price of copper has rebounded almost to its previous peak and LME copper stocks have started falling again. this certaintly does not imply that the world economy is weakening.

O.K., I admit I'm an idiot. But I haven't been able to actually view any of the videos.
Once looking at the screen you get when you follow one of the video links above, what exactly does one do to see the video. At this point I've failed from both IE on Windows and Safari on a Mac.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who was disappointed when the good professor did not get the nod to be Amanda Congdon's replacement on Rocketboom!

Hi there!
What happened to the morning coffee videos? I first read about them in the current Economist issue and very much enjoyed watching the old ones.
Arent there any new ones coming at all or is this just a kind of summer break. A well deserved one; I am sure.
It would be a petty if I could not have my coffee together with Prof DeLong again.
Best Regards from Germany
Stefan
