Publicized it, I said, not discovered it. Cowen has a huge readership, and pretty much anyone who ever hears of this will do so because Cowen publicized it; and Cowen knows this, so the honesty argument is still true.

No, I got it from Henderson's blog, but the source data got lost and reconstructed as Tyler. I haven't seen any Marginal Revolution post publicizing it.

Whoops, you're right; it was Henderson/EconLog, not Cowen.
