This seems like a perfectly batshit end to a perfectly batshit day:

I'm a long-time reader and have a sincere appreciation for your logical, direct approach to sexuality.

I was reading about Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize and found myself, despite having voted for him, thinking that it is both premature and, at least at this point in time, unwarranted. But it did get me thinking about the kind of person who ought to be nominated for such a prestigious award, and it occurred to me that you, sir, have contributed much to the cause of acceptance (ie, peace). Acceptance of one's own sexuality, of the sexuality of others. You travel and give speeches, write about these things, give interviews, et cetera. It is a job that you do quite well, and you serve as an inspiration to others. But above and beyond that, you do all of this with a consistency that seems to indicate a true passion and belief that the individual matters. That the well-being of even one person, gay, straight or oscilllating in between, is worthwhile.

Honestly, I'd like to nominate you for this award. I am going to investigate how to go about doing that, and I think there are more than 5 people out there who will agree with me. Just warning you that this is coming.

Thank you, Dan, for what you do so well.

K.W.

The whole world's gone mad—including at least one of my readers. K.W.? If nominated I will not, um, run (do you run for those things?); if selected by the committee—pffffffffffffft!—I will not be going to Oslo. Well, not unless I get to take this home with the check and the medal.
