The Greeks voted no to the European Union's terms, despite warnings from the EU that rejecting new austerity terms would set their country on a path out of the Eurozone. 62% voted "No" while 38% voted "Yes".

    Interesting story from one of Keynes' college courses. He was rather intolerant of students not paying attention, and would make a point of it. During one lecture, he noticed one of his students dozing during a lecture. So he quietly asked a question, then in a loud voice called out "Mr. Dodson, what do you think?"

    The student became quickly alert when hearing his name, but did not hesitate to answer:

    "I'm sorry, Dr. Keynes, I did not hear the question. But the answer is 'We need more stimulus!'"
