I thought that was funny. Admittedly I'm not much of a poetry reader, so it doesn't bother me that they used a Wordsworth poem. It's not like it's holy or anything. That video really inspired some vitriolic comments elsewhere, though. I find myself wondering if Wordsworth took himself as seriously as his fans do.

You know what's really sad? When I read some of the entries, I honestly can't tell if they've been vandalised, or if they were serious.

Or is that funny? Damn! I can't decide.

Jon: why would it be reassuring if it's wrong much of the time?

I assume it's because he wants the POV of the character to sound convincing. So, if he's writing like a man for the man's POV and like a woman for the woman's POV, that's a good thing.
