tom: the hallmark of research is you put algebra behind your work.got beautiful regressions and correlations filtered throughout all your research. stan fisher talks about uncertainty. i would suggest respectfully it's a little different than what alan+++ he talks about uncertainty. how do you guys codify the word uncertainty at the back end of that regression equation? drew: so i would just say that i don't view uncertainty as a bad thing. one of the problems is the fed is trying to remove volatility from the equation and remove uncertainty, but what are markets? they're efforts to reduce uncertainty through people having different opinions, putting different prices on things, and it settles. if everyone has the same opinion and something else happens, then you actually increase volatility. so it actually works against you. there was a very good paper on this at the chicago school's monetary policy forum last week. tom: excuse me, everyone went to this forum except me. did you go, francine? francine: i did. everyone. everyone. tom: everyone went, th
