Quote from: http://xkcd.com/about/How do I write "xkcd"? There's nothing in Strunk and White about this.

    For those of us pedantic enough to want a rule, here it is: The preferred form is "xkcd", all lower-case. In formal contexts where a lowercase word shouldn't start a sentence, "XKCD" is an okay alternative. "Xkcd" is frowned upon.

Sadly, that's more of a style guide than we have...  >:D

Have any of you actually read her book?  It's not a bad read, and she's not one of those conspiracy theory people who think the government is watching everyone at this very moment.  I got it on my Kindle the first week it was out, and she doesn't talk about "aliens" or anything, but she does talk about how VERY highly compartmentalized the base is, and the book is based on interviews with former base employees.

Aliens... It's all aliens. Besides, those "government employees" that she interviewed were government plants. The real "Area 51" is code named "North Dakota" think about it... I have been in the military and have met multiple people from every state, and many from other countries but I am yet to meet anyone from this so called "North Dakota."

ANCIENT ALIENS... ancient aliens

... now that you know too much...

Not true, I have met someone from North Dakota.  (Come to think of it though, he always did seem a little odd to me. ???)

He's making quite a killing from the fame. Many a time I've been tempted to buy his $45 ($45!!!!) T-Shirt wih his iconic image.
