I think my view is that whenever you project into the future you're never likely to be accurate in the details or the paraphernalia and style. It's in the spirit of it.

It's funny. People often compare me to other humor essayists. They're usually quite nice comparisons I will accept those gladly. But I am always sort of appalled at the idea of being lumped with other more chick-y female writers. And the truth is probably that neither comparison is accurate.
