News Of The WeekNews Of The Week
Welcome to Books & Articles Weekly.
Thanks to everyone who contributed. For the first time in a while, @kr takes top honors for his post about a Steinbeck quote. I really enjoyed it, and highly recommend that everyone read it if they haven’t done so already. The rest of the top five were also of high quality this week, including two good book reviews and a few @denlillaapan gems.
Reminder: For the time being I will zap the top post half the rewards I receive before the next week’s issue, rather than split zaps into cowboy credits.
Happy reading!
.
As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.

This link post didn’t get much attention, but I really enjoyed the article. Maybe I’m just a sucker for dollar bashing. I’m not a big fan of Ken Rogoff, who has been a proponent of ending cash to prevent money laundering. With opinions like that, I can’t imagine him being pro bitcoin. Still, the article is worth your time.
