Prespond

v.: To publish and make readily available an idea that rebuts the future arguments of those who fail adequately to research what others have already published. n.: presponse.
Jonathan (in early 2010): "The 1937–1938 dip was not the product of tight fiscal and monetary policy, but of excessive government regulation and loose monetary policy."

Kevin (in late 2011): In 1937, "federal spending was cut and monetary policy was tightened up, with disastrous results: GDP immediately began to plummet, and industrial production fell by a third."

Jonathan: I presponded to that canard two years ago. Don't you research before you write?
