So many great suggestions. But some of them have won the Nobel prize 
and others have been presidents of AEA etc.

David Colander had written:

"Thus, I would appreciate suggestions of very famous economists
who died between 1978 and 2009 who were not AEA
Presidents, AEA Distinguished Fellows, or John Bates Clark Medalists."

I have a question about the format of the calendar. If the birthdays 
of famous economists are noted on the calendar, where do the quotes 
and photos appear? And is there a month in which more of these 
economists are born? Should that be considered a blessing or a 
warning? Don't ask the general public in these times. An English 
department colleague on the verge of retirement expressed his desire 
to line up all economics Nobel Laureates and hire a shooter to do the rest.
