New York Times: Where the hell is Mike Myers?

Dear Ed Leibowitz,

Thank you very much for writing the informative article, "Mike Myers: Intentional Man of Mystery." Your piece had a very clever title. However, why did you have to call my book "obscure?" Why not something equally accurate but better? Like "shiny?" In any case, my goofy book about robot uprisings was featured in the science section of the NYT earlier this year. That piece was written by Cornelia Dean. For your information, I like Cornelia better than I like you. Wait, that doesn't feel fair. I guess I like you too, Ed.

Sincerely,

Daniel H. Wilson

New Gig for Popular Mechanics Online

I scored a new writing job for popular mechanics online -- a bi-weekly column about robots and how totally sweet and awful they are. My first column went up today and I'll have more every other week from now on.
