Geithner, a Man Who Doesn't Lose His Cool

Jeff,
Well here we are again! We were both wrong on the pick; you thought it woulld be Larry Summers and, I was certain that Alistair Darling would get the nod! I suppose there is a lesson in here somewhere for us both but - I must admit that it absolutely escapes me.
As far as your assessment of Tim's cool demeanor, based upon your not betraying any confidence, as well as, his not betraying any sign of what you allege or surmise to be a phone call from the president elect - come on now Jeff, this is a bit of a "stretch", if not in logic, most certainly in imagination! Admit it, you were both in a four hour meeting (which to many of us suggests that you do not manage your collective time well) & he likely just needed a break. I'm betting that the first call was from Hank Paulson & the second call was from his administrative assistant! Please get back to us on this subject.
