A Nobel Prize in Astrology?
Phil Orenstein just left a comment on a prior blog that Paul Krugman was awarded the Nobel Prize in economics. Given that Krugman is a quack and the field of economics that Krugman represents has the same status as a science as does astrology, I urge the Nobel Prize committee to be fair and to institute a Nobel Prize in astrology to complement the Nobel Prize in economics. I'm sure that there are many smart astrologers out there whose contribution to human knowledge exceeds Krugman's.
