Thanks for fighting the good fight, Mr. Carr.

Greetings,

Do you have an opinion on the use of computational methods in behavioural economics? As behavioural economics often relax some of the assumptions that make economic decisions easy to model it seems that this is the way to push the field forward. On this point, there was last week a conference on computational social science in Helsinki that show cased a lot of interesting methods and ideas that could well be applied in an economic situation.

On a similar note, do you think we'll ever have a behavioural economics theory or will it be a hodge podge of different methods and ideas with very little in common? Is it possible maybe to use evolution somehow as an organizational framework?
