meara, precisely! Also, this is for a brief column that has neither the space nor a particularly good reason to get into definitions of and debates over slash fiction, so the comment would have been almost entirely without context, and read almost entirely by people lacking any context for or understanding of fanfic or slash. Just... seemed like a really bad idea.
If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

My brain isn't working. What's the name of the effect that observation has on phenomena?
Gentlemen, what we have here is a terrifying example of the reindeer effect.

OK, I dunno if anyone else has read Joel Stein's IDIOTIC tweet on YA book readers, but I am writing a rebuttal in a white-hot state of WTF? and would love a beta over in GWW. It's a rough draft; I just finished the draft.

He's an idiot, and it was in one of those idiotic NYTimes.com point-counterpoint roundups.

Hey, does anyone know what to do with mail that comes to your house for a previous tenant? The people who lived here just before us actually just moved next door, so anything addressed to them we can just stick in their mailbox, but we've gotten a few letters recently for people whose names we don't recognize. Usually I'd just toss them, but a couple of them look potentially important. Can anyone think of any way we can get these letters to the right place?
