They call me *Doctor* Lawrence! (Signifying Nothing: how does saying nothing at all become so loud?)

They call me Doctor Lawrence!

Last-minute paperwork snafus aside (grr), you can now call me Dr. Chris Lawrence, after a dissertation defense that—among other wide-ranging topics—wrestled with the eternal questions of whether or not Paul Krugman and Ann Coulter are politically “sophisticated,” left unanswered who would survive a cage match between John Zaller and Robert Luskin, questioned whether or not Arthur “Skip” Lupia knows any psychologists, and pondered whether or not a heuristic can be perfect.

Sue me, but I’ve been wanting to use that post title for months.

This is today’s entry in the Beltway Traffic Jam.
