Umm... hey everybody... I just caught noticed this:

The author of this peice represents, and I quote, "the Ecumaniacal Patriarchate."

Maybe my Greek is a little rusty. OK, I don't know any Greek. But doesn't "ecumaniacal" mean something like "universally insane?" :)

I think "ecumenical" is the desired term. What little gremlin got his hands on this?

and yes, I am joking... I know "ecu" alone doesn't mean "universal" and "insane" is a terrible translation of "mania." The other errors are unintentional; I'm not inerrant, only infallible. No wait, I'm not infallible either.
