Just followed the link posted by Leiter that is a "statistical analysis tool, which analyzes your word choice and writing style and compares them with those of the famous writers."
Found here
Wanting to be reassured of my writing brilliance I added three different pieces of writing, all of which are philosophical, The results were that I write like Kurt Vonnegut, H.P. Lovecraft, and Daniel Dafoe.
I don't know if I am too happy about this. The first two are science-fiction writers and the pieces that were analysed were on moral philosophy. Dafoe, who is famous for Robinson Crusoe, is an early English novelist and wrote when the English language was in its infancy.
So the analysis of my writing is that, a) my thoughts about moral philosophy is just fantasy, and b) my English skills are infantile.

AAP Conference
I was just wondering if there were any thoughts on the AAP? I preferred last year's, in that I got to talk to more people and seemed to "learn" more. But this year's was much larger. Anyone have other comments?
