"Mr. Greenspan, the other day you said,
'Today’s competitive markets ... are driven
 by an international version of Adam Smith’s
'invisible hand' that is unredeemably opaque'.
Our readers would like you to explain how
something invisible can also be opaque."

  2. Even if old Alan could explain how something invisible can be opaque, I still wouldn't know what "unredeemably opaque" means. Plus, I think the correct adverbial form is 'irredeemably'.
