"SPOONY"

Citizen Weston illustrated his theory by telling you that when a bowl contains a certain quantity of soup, to be eaten by a certain number of persons, an increase in the broadness of the spoons would produce no increase in the amount of soup.  He must allow me to find this illustration rather spoony.  Citizen Barjenbruch illustrated his theory by quoting you a section of Marx's "Value, Price, and Profit" in which Marx uses the word "spoony."
