This lecture wil l carefully examine Summers' arguments\, as well as provide a more refined estimate\, showing that Summers' 5:1 estimate is very conservative under his assumptions.

Coffee and cookies at 3:00 pm. Receptio n\, with wine and cheese\, follows the talk.\n DTSTART:20060310T203000Z DTEND:20060310T203000Z LOCATION:Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:How 'crude' is Harvard president's calculation?
