Came here to say this. It really is awesome; and I hate Krugman!

It's really an interesting situation; thinking about how there would no longer be an 'unambiguous' measure of time when we have faster than light travel.

I try to separate academic Krugman from New York Times Krugman. It helps.

Why do all of you seem to hate Krugman?

I don't. I have much respect for the man.

But his NYT writings can sometimes lean towards what might be described as "left-wing blowhardism".
