Heartland Loses Another!

Economist Peter Cramton ( a specialist on auction theory and practice) sent me the following email today:

Dear Mr. Murphy,

I do believe that climate change is one of the key challenges of the day. As such, I have done considerable research in support of effective climate policy (see http://www.cramton.umd.edu/papers/climate/). I was shocked by the billboard and then the failure of Heartland to make an immediate and clear apology for what was to me an outrageous blunder.

I have asked Heartland to remove me from there list of experts.

It is fine to include my response in your blog.

So there you have it.
