Dear Michael & Jerry, 
 
 
 
Michael, 
 
 
Andrew did say something about losses w. historic 
valuation and rapid technical change,  I think. 
As I recall, this idea depends upon price decreases. 
My question to him was -- Why assume the decreases 
prior to a crisis?  We digressed about this under the  
"constant capital" digression. 
 
 
 
Jerry, 
 
Sorry about the stuff at the end. 
 
 
 
Regards, 
 
 
John
