Also in the very special old fogies debate Michelin Massey debated Dave McGinness and all the students were given a ballot. The decison was a 5-2 for Michelin.

The round robin also featured a lecture by Professor Laura Johnson, a member of the Univ of Denver economics department, talking about the job/environment trade off myth.

Thanks to all that came, it was a great time!
