Hmm. I’m fairly accustomed to having speaking events disrupted by Larouchies (when I was in Cambridge a while back we had a guy yelling about banana fungus, among other things, who had to be shouted down by the audience).

But last night at Baruch the problem was Austrian economics/Ron Paul people who just wouldn’t stop talking.

On the whole, I might prefer the banana fungus.

While I don't advocate interrupting events or being rude, this is just Krugman's attempt to belittle Austrian economics. I wonder what it was that Krugman was doing while Ron Paul and the Austrian economists were accurately forecasting our current recession and warning people of the housing bubble. Oh that's right, he was opining on how it would be great for Greenspan to create a housing bubble, and shining up his Nobel Prize in economics.
