“In Tunisia people pay twice as much for a Renault 4 as for a a Christmas tree. British baby doves, on the other hand, value Christmas trees over Renaults (and Peugeots) because Scotch pine grows at a sufficient rate to accommodate the needs of a maturing boidie. Lenin is a Christmas tree of unclear exchange value, but Seattlians don’t go in for French cars.”
