Thank you for pointing out the blindingly obvious.
The book that’s from, Our Dumb Century, was published in 1999.
Ah fair enough. I assumed that this week was its first publication, since you chose this time to resurrect a three-week-old thread.
Well, the book was published in 1999, but that page from the book has only been on their site since Tuesday. They put a different one up every week.
Yes I know. And in my time zone, it goes up very early on Wednesdays, which would make sense with the issuance dates.
