:Vocalomentum

Over at :Vocalo they're discussing whether Segways are gay or not (not gay as in gay, but gay as in gay).

They're gay, the hosts* agree. (The Navy is gay, but old-school gay. Cowboys are also gay, they agree.) It's part of a segment called "Gay or not Gay." Which is new. To :Vocalo, I mean.

Michael Miner explains what's going on over there

*One of the hosts is gay, as in homosexual, so it's ok.

I don't think it's disclosing too much Secret Reader Policy that titles and names tend to get sheared of typographical weirdness (camel caps, etc) as a manner of house style. Depending on the situation, at least (what we would do in the case of, say, bell hooks, I have no idea; !!!, as you can tell from the Pitchfork guide, we're kind of stuck with; if I was a copy editor I might rally for Chk Chk Chk just to be a pain). I haven't asked but I figure that's the case. I try to wait for the copy editing arcana to come to me.
