After posting the link to FT Alphaville in "Connections: Understanding Oil and Finance", immediately below, with the ref right in the head, I went back to FTAV but passed over the current top story because I had already decided against attending "We are hosting a New York pub quiz and drinks!" on November 19th.
It turns out the post I skipped, "Obese metropolitan oenophile punters", is not an invitation for portly city-slicker wino bankers to participate in Alphaville's upcoming shindig.
The lesson: Don't make the connection before you see if things are connected.
