Hi Dave Z:
 
This must be a reference to Kliman's writings on 'spurious correlations'
(in _RPE_ and _CJE_ primarily). Wright, evidently, must not be aware of
the replies and rejoinders to the Kliman critique of Cockshott-Cottrell.
Most of the responses claim to show that Kliman's statistical methods and
reasoning is, well, spurious.
 
In solidarity, Jerry
