    More insanity than anything else, if you ask me. Check out his Web site. It's a bit freaky.

    Was there something wrong with the old style guide, newbie?

    I like it because you don't have to wade throught it to find the newer ones.

    Well it was spread out across 22 pages. But other than that, no.

    I can't remember which esteemed poster coined it, and I'm not sure if it's in the search function. But that phrase made me laugh for 10 minutes. I'll see what I can dig up on it, unless the oldest of the old-timers here can remember.

    That's what I thought. What's the deal with that?

    This isn't bad, getting it all on one post without threadjacks separating many of the items.

    And Clever, my understanding is that real life intervened and didn't allow the compiler to complete the tabulations.

    Well I'll put it in with an "awaiting definition" next to it.

    I liked that the old one had a certain SportsJournalists.com sensibility to it.

    Nothing wrong with 22 pages of style guide goodness.
