Presented at the 20th Political Methodology Summer Conferences

Background

These remarks were presented in the final plenary session of the 2003 summer meetings. A number of people asked for copies of the presentation, so I've put it on the web.

The PowerPoint presentation generally responds to to key or mouse clicks, except the second and final slides, which have internal timing. The HTML version has a few additional remarks.
