“Maybe more people will show up at the next NRO confab that your hostess keeps pitching if all you agree to form a ‘ululating mob.’ And if you promise it won’t lynch anyone. :)”

House rules here at NR World Headquarters discourage ululating, Sir, and absolutely forbid lynching–though WFB has been known to suggest the latter as just punishment for an editor who splits infinitives.

If there is sufficient demand from attendees, though, I think a brief episode of mob ululation might be included in the Feb. 9 festivities.
