Although this talk is framed in terms of a contest between agents and humans, we believe that this work points the way to what will ultimately be an interesting partnership between agents and humans in the realm of economic decision making.

We owe a great deal to Steve Gjerstad and Jason Shachat of the Watson Experimental Economics Laboratory, and to Jonathan Bredin and Weng-Keen Wong, who worked on this project with us during the summer of 2000.
