Paul Krugman is thoroughly accessible for someone who might not be an expert in economics. If a person can't understand him, they're hopeless. I love to see that much intelligence all rolled into one brain. Seems to be a good man, too.

Buckley was smart in his own way, but what a waste he made of it. No comparison.
