Yeah, it's bullshit, though. They found a tiny math error amongst a giant sea of agreement and the blogs are all freaking out. EDIT You know, having watched this out of the corner of my eye all day, I'm less and less wont to defend R&R. All economists are liars but when you have to tweedle the data in such a way that other economists can't even see the way you've tweedled it you're a douche. I retract my statement.
