    Andrew, you still have Anna Schwartz described as Milton Friedman's wife in the previous HTTW entry

    Took forever to get Pablo's math corrected, and now these Friedman nuptials, noted in that entry's second letter. So I'll say it again and perhaps get the attention of an editor:

    Milton Friedman and Anna Jacobson Schwartz collaborated on a book together. They were not husband and wife. The HTTW post "Dow plunges again, Friedman fans despair" should really be corrected.
