Jay asks:
 Is it true that institutions have developmental
trajectories, growing more resistant to structural change as they age?
seems to be so, and may raise some interesting questions about how to

AN answer? YES! and also YES. The trick is to do it, in detail, at
several levels of aggregation over time!
