Dirk, I am unaware of the possible problems you point out (bad my
perspective).

My comments were based upon Friedman's comments with respect to Muslim
actresses and Muslim software entrepreneurs being successful in what one
would expect to be a hostile environment.

This does not however subtract from the main point I was trying to make --
*when* are you dealing with "rational" actors and when are you dealing with
"irrational" actors?

One of Friedman's contributions is to project forward the "rational"
behavior of large numbers of individuals which may be built upon an
irrational foundation (IMO).
