“My favorite part has always been the economic overview presented by Dr. Fry. I hear a lot about the economy on TV and the internet, and I don’t know who to believe. However, his presentations are straightforward, honest, and supported by lots of data and analysis. Additionally, I like the technical presentations. The papers give a good summary of the latest innovations and trends in the business.”
