Some reader e-mails you just have to post:

“Derb, you brought to mind another, similar calculus by asking for help finding the J.S. Mill piece. Namely, the calculus of celebrity. How much effort do I go to in order to see my writing, via emails to Corner contributors, show up on the Corner? Would I answer a simple question? Absolutely. Would I fall behind in my duties at work while searching for a J.S. Mill piece? Er, which duties?”

[Derb] And thank you, Charles (& several readers), for locating the Adam Smith piece. I don’t know why I thought it was Mill.
