Blush.
Don't get me wrong--I like the essay I wrote a lot, and Tom McGraw's Schumpeter biography is excellent. But even I don't think it's in the world's top 20 essays for 2007...
And what credit there is should be shared with Alex Kafka, the editor on the piece, who did do a bang-up job, I thought.
