What's in a Pronoun

If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery than scripted website rewrites have to be the equivalent for the internet age. Alright, the Singularist guy seems pretty pissed off in this Windy City interview, but we'll take it anyway.

From the interview:

Chicagoist: Well, thanks for your time. Is there anything you'd like to shout out to the Nerd-ist staff out there?

Eric Richardson: i know you've got your editorial rules, but just go out there and let your voice come through in what you write. that's what people want to read -- real stuff from real people

Richardson takes issue with Seattlest and the rest of the network referrring to ourselves with the hive-minded "we", and so created a site that republishes our content with a few word substitutions. It turns out actual grammatical changes aren't that easy to predict, although we assure you that if there were a program that could produce actual, readable English than Seattlest would be running it ourselves hourly.
