I am going to win an award for nitpicking, which is hard to do around here, but IT BURNS, so:

This story is entitled "They're Made Out Of Meat," just as it was when I first read it over a decade ago. It is not entitled "They're Made of Meat".

Yes, I know. But if you can't understand why someone might care about the difference, dare I suggest that you're not a writer? ;)

(The story is built around this phrase; the repetitions of the refrain in your head in an incredulous voice is half the point of the story. Every syllable must be presumed to be carefully chosen, and I agree with the author's choice.)
