Good luck. I was thinking of something very similar when I was reading this Forbes article on why medical drugs and college textbooks are expensive, called "Spending Other People's Money: What Professors And Doctors Have In Common" (http://www.forbes.com/sites/davidwhelan/2012/01/27/spending-...). I remember that article got me pondering all kinds of things, including the role of experts in the networked world and von Mises' economic calculation problem. Good to see someone working on this.
