Kieran Healy’s Weblog – Elementary Particles: I’m looking forward to spending a bit of time at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences this fall.... [T]he Stanford Superconducting Supersocializer... will propel local college sophomores at tremendous speeds into unfamiliar groups of people in an effort to plumb the structure of the elementary particles of social interaction...

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.
Looks to me like Kieran Healy spent a bit too much time at Harvard's Center for High Energy Metaphysics aka the Dudley co-op.

Aha! I knew there was something missing! But those particles are controlled substances...hard to do legal research on those...
(full disclosure: I lived at 3 Sacramento St. Cambridge, MA (off and on) from the Spring of '88 until the summer of '92)
