Now I am confused -- even more so than before.  You write that
"Andy is quite right here" but -- as far as I can tell -- Andy spoke not at
all to the issue of  indexing at constant prices and current prices in
[7915] and [7921].  Am I missing something?  You disagree with
my interpretation  but do you agree with Andy's (and does Andy agree
with your interpretation?)?

Would anyone else care to throw her/his hat into the pile?

In solidarity, Jerry

PS: I'm afraid I haven't read Alfredo's latest book yet and consequently
can't comment on his interpretation of these distinction.
