Retraction

I would like to correct an error in my blog post entitled unanimous.

I stated that Nicolas Sarkozy spent an estimated 500 Euro per minute on his inauguration. I misquoted this figure - it was in fact 5000 Euro per minute. This was from Henry Samuel's column in The Independent.

I probably should have checked the number before typing, but at least it's not as if I overquoted, which could be construed as slander.
