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. Sumitra Shah
