James Rathtarbeck @sesquiotic
I am aware from reading tweets that there are famous Twitter people at #ACES2016 I have not met in person yet. Must rectify this.

Having Twitter means I don't have to quit #ACES2016 cold turkey. Probably unheatlhy, but I like it.

What I learned at #ACES2016: The Epicene They is not prehistoric tribe, but is a few centuries old (and the name of my future rock band).

In compiling style guide, copy editor may know best, but feedback, authority, and buy-in are important. #ACES2016

An editor is extremely important in marketing proposals. They ensure an external perspective and act like the actual reviewer. #ACES2016

Court reporters get to have the serial comma but not two spaces after punctuation. Yes! Copy editor rules the style guide. #ACES2016

What I love about #ACES2016: ~200 people show up for a 9 a.m. session on corpus linguistics. Everyone loooooves words. #ACES2016
