Re:    Imposters

It has come to my attention that one Anal P. Lardbottom is once again 
sending mail on the letterhead of the League Of Obsessed Nitpickers.  
Mr. Lardbottom is a former employee of L.O.O.N. who was fired from 
his position because he annoys me.  Please ignore any and all 
official-looking correspondence you may receive from this man.  As 
longtime L.O.O.N. member Amy Zifflenplatzen has stated, Lardbottom 
can not even get the name of our organization right.

In reference for the petition for membership presented by Mr. Sam 
Brown, we are granting both Mr. Brown (for his inspired nitpick) and 
Mr. Joel N. Fischoff (for his well-researched rebuttal) conditional 
L.O.O.N. membership.  We understand that the difference in opinion 
between Mr. Brown and Mr. Fischoff is due to differing word usage in 
the British and American editions of GoF.  As such, the conditional 
membership will be upgraded to lifetime membership in L.O.O.N. upon 
submission of a study of no less than 5000 words on the variation in 
word usage in different editions of GoF.  (Hey, its not easy being a 
L.O.O.N.!)

Incidently, L.O.O.N. is now offering a reward of 14 sickles, 5 knuts 
for the apprehension of Anal P. Lardbottom.

Thank you very much.
