OMG, this is so funny
A while ago I read David Mamet’s ALL CAPS MEMO and as with most people, thought it was brilliant. But there was one part that kept bothering me.

Happy Birthday Erin
I am very lucky to work with Seed/Scienceblogs editor and blog herder (no one is actually certain of her exact title)
Erin Johnson. Erin is the person we Sblings rely on to keep everything running smoothly, to manufacture our debates, I think she may be the person who writes several of the pseudonymous blogs that are no the network. Without Erin, this would be a very boring place.
