The sheer volume of gameday thread comments puts jponry over the top
This award seems pretty arbitrary, though. What does it mean to be most spirited? I’ve seen a wide variety of different types of posters be nominated for this award.
The baseball Satanist
I agree this is arbitrary. None of these choices were ones that had popped into my mind when I saw the thread. I guess posting a lot = spirit or something. I was thinking more like GRM who is truly spirited for obvious reasons. E ticket because of the wonderful posts that clearly take a lot of time and effort which shows spirit to me. Meh..I voted for jpo because she want(s/ed) to be an admin so bad.

Yes, there is that.
I think our spelling of aluminum came first. I’m not sure of that though.

The earliest citation given in the Oxford English Dictionary for any word used as a name for this element is alumium, which British chemist and inventor Humphry Davy employed in 1808 for the metal he was trying to isolate electrolytically from the mineral alumina. The citation is from his journal Philosophical Transactions: “Had I been so fortunate as..to have procured the metallic substances I was in search of, I should have proposed for them the names of silicium, alumium, zirconium, and glucium.”
By 1812, Davy had settled on aluminum. He wrote in the journal Chemical Philosophy: “As yet Aluminum has not been obtained in a perfectly free state.” But the same year, an anonymous contributor to the Quarterly Review, a British political-literary journal, objected to aluminum and proposed the name aluminium, “for so we shall take the liberty of writing the word, in preference to aluminum, which has a less classical sound.”

Putting the punctuation of the outside sentence inside quotation marks is stupid.

Exactly
It looks stupid, it’s counterintuitive, and it doesn’t improve clarity in any way.

I think it hurts clarity
If I say this:
Did you really say “it doesn’t improve clarity in any way?”
Then it looks like that was your question, not mine.
GROUGTHINK ALERT

Yup. HTS said once that if it hurts clarity, you’re allowed to put punctuation marks outside the quotation marks. I took it as an admission that the original rule is useless.

howie said something useful?
That almost makes me want to read one of his other posts.
Almost.
GROUGTHINK ALERT
The first Chester Arthur fanboy ever.
I don’t remember saying that, but I do agree with it.
However, most if not all American style-guides don’t like the question mark inside of a quote. They love commas and periods being in there. And probably semi-colons. I forget what they have to say about exclamation points.
It’s a messy “standard” but it does make the effort to correct for some of the more bewildering punctuation problems that inside-the-quotes punctuation creates.

But question marks don’t get put inside the quotes, so what you just said was wrong regardless.

There’s nothing British about my English, by the way. I do use the Present Perfect tense a lot, which is apparently considered Britishy, but that’s it. Oh, and the serial comma, because it’s good for you. My accent is definitely American.
My private teacher was actually from New Zealand, now that I think about it. Wait, maybe Australia. School teachers were mostly from Brooklyn, except for one awesome dude from South Africa.

"All I know is right now, you comeback and do you dwell on that? I think you're man enough to take it, you're man enough to chew on it, to spit it out and you learn from it. ...
