- We could do perfect (in a sense) performance measurement if we compared what was done to all of the possible alternatives

- portfolio constraints are imposed as a form of insurance

- R is a good environment for such work
Presented 2009 June at the Thalesians.
There is a video of the talk on the Thalesian website (near the bottom).
