It may not be as cool to whine to whines, but I'll do it, rather than fill out a form.

Don't put black letters on dark blue backgrounds, as was done with khines (is that yo bro?) piece on The Babe. Hard for us old farts -- and maybe the rest of the world -- to read.

Boy am I sick of El Nino crap, too. But it's the dumb, fucking media, not the dumb fucking weathermen. All the damned media needs is some cool term, like El Nino, and it's like months of headlines. If the effect were called The Blotinski-Fernhold Theorem, who the fuck would ever hear about it?

(Editor's note: After making sure we could use this letter, the letter-writer responded with this:)

Do what you wish with it. I'm sick of hearing about El Nino. If the goddamned cat takes his shit in the mornings now instead of the evening, it's probably because of El Nino.
