i spent most of the day editing a chapter of this macro book. ended up learning a bit about Excel. Lots of the lessons in this book are Excel based, so try learning Macro that way, where u can really muck around with the data. It's a good alternative approach I think. Book doesn't focus too much on flexible or sticky prices, rather it's more of a constrained or unconstrained equilibrium (well, isn't a sticky price a constraint? )

climb this weekend is shaping up. Must study tonight.
