SIGN UP IN ADVANCE: So many conferences and other events ask us to do this. Others want us to preregister, or even preregister in advance. Some tell us our seats must be reserved in advance, as if it were possible to register or reserve after the event.

To us at the Institute for the Linguistically Impaired, this request tells us that the event was organized by either cerebroporosis sufferers or, more likely, temporal retentives.

Instead of signing up, registering, or reserving, we send them our brochure. We describe our fundraising drive for the new Edwin Newman Clinic for temporal retentives and invite contributions.

We seldom get replies. Imagine that.
