Good afternoon, Sydney Grew. I never realised that you, too, were a scientist. Out of interest, what was your speciality? If I may nevertheless address your challenging question(s) directly: " ... Does the same rule apply to a) house prices in England? b) Indian restaurants? c) coins of the realm?" a. House prices in EnglandIn my opinion, Scarcity, Opportunity and Familiarity all enter into the equation of the price of a house. Buckingham Palace, for example, is familiar, but both scarce and inopportune. It probably has no price, as it will never come on the housing market. b. Indian restaurants?In my opinion, Scarcity, Opportunity and Familiarity all enter into the equation of quality of an Indian restaurant. Tamarind, for example, is scarce, opportune and familiar, at least to kleines c. The food is of dubious quality, but it is, nevertheless, relatively expensive. Tamarindc. Coins of the realmIn my opinion, Scarcity, Opportunity and Familiarity all enter into the equation of the value of a coin of the realm. If I offer you a farthing for your troubles, Sydney Grew, will a farthing be sufficient, let alone appropriate?
