It’s true that I don’t get nearly the quantity or quality of batshit crazy email that PZ does, but I must say I’m particularly pleased with today’s highlight:

subject I nominate you for the Phyllis Schlafly AwardSo, you can’t spell. And, your punctuation and capitalization skills suck. If you’re going to put your oh-so-erudite opinions out there in front of God & everybody (that’s right, buddy, capital G), have enough patience to use spell-check. Maybe you can find another unemployed brainiac to be an editor. You need some help.

Wow! My spelling sucks and I’m unemployed. How will I ever recover from the humiliation long enough to realize that at least I have the intelligence not to use my work email address to send personal insults to total strangers?
I’ll never recover from this abuse. Obviously I should take back everything I said about John Coleman and Phyllis Schlafly, because any misspelled criticism is clearly invalid. Why, god, why?

Translation (So it has some validity with the grammar police.): In homage to bad spellers everywhere, I am sending this typed in a manor as if done with haste. Also influencing my word choice is that I’ve spent too much time at icanhascheezburger today. I have enjoyed reading your blog; please do continue with your posts.
