 Concerning wingnuts and wing nuts

Kevin Drum's Golden Wingnut awards (won, naturally, by John Hinderaker, against some very stiff competition) are a great idea, and I hope he makes them an annual event.

But I can't resist pointing out that if he'd gone to an actual engineering school instead of Cal Tech, he'd probably know what an actual wing nut looks like.

Footnote And isn't it obvious that someone pretending to be a testosterone-poisoned man, and who writes a long screed on "The Pussification of the Western Male" under the pseudonym "Kim du Toit" must actually be a feminist satirist? I suspect Lindsay Beyerstein.
