Some of you may be interested in viewing a Lloyd Mints video clip 
that someone has posted to You Tube.  Mints was a member of the early 
Chicago School, along with better-known members Frank Knight and 
Jacob Viner.  Mints wrote on banking, and the clip includes a couple 
of comments from Mints on banks and bankers, from an interview when 
he turned 100 in 1988----in our current situation, Mints' scepticism 
of bankers seems prescient.

(My next-door neighbor, Lloyd Woodworth, is Mints' nephew, and was 
named "Lloyd" in honor of his uncle;  he kindly alerted me to the 
posting of the clip.)

The URL of the clip
