The yellow pages test comes from a dead libertarian Austrian "Economist". Kinda interesting since he died in 1995 and the school of economics he followed was already obsolete when it came out in the 1930s.

This stuff is part of the reason why age does matter in elected office. People get ideas and they don't let them go even long after they have been disproven.
