A 2009 study by utpal bhattacharya of kelley school of business at indiana university and cassandra marshall of robins school of business at the university of richmond tested whether insider trading is " economically rational " .
But what pleases cassandra is that ms bush has been nominated precisely a quarter of a century after she last won the award . A triumph , in other words , for the music and musicians of a generation ago .
If the cassandra sketch is the truer likeness , then that 's as much a blow to latter-day admirers ( who 'd like to see at least a hint of the wit and vivacity that so animated her writing ) as it might have been to 18th-century suitors .
