I think it's just absurd to believe you can get to know someone within 60 - 90 minutes. A good liar/imposter can fool people for years. That's why you always ask for references and cross check stories.

Sample means and true means are different things.

Everybody had "predicted" 2000 and 2008 in the financial industry. That statement means nothing at this point.

I see 0 intellectual honesty from this article. 1. No reputable economists would make outrageous predictions like "if you do A I think B will definitely happen regardless of externalities"; 2. If you are going after a study go after its facts and logic, not the author's affiliation that's just disgusting; 3. It claims this subject cannot be studied with proper control. I don't even know what to say about that.
