Following up on this semi-literate rant, I decided to hit translate.google.com.

It turns out that "Scalzi," translated from Italian to English, is "Scalzi.

And the Italian for "genital wart" is actually "verruca genitale."

The things you learn on the intarwebs.

I loved that the first comment to that entry was from Scalzi himself, grading the effort :)

I'm ashamed to say that I didn't see the comments at first, as NoScript had blocked Haloscan. Seeing those (and his increasingly lame responses) just makes it funnier.

Wow. This guy's a fucknut even by the low standards of the Internet..........

Seems like your standard brain-dead right wing nutjob. Probably pissed off because Scalzi a goddamlibrul invading his traditional SF turf (military fiction.)

Yeah, that was her middle name. Verucca Genitale Salt. *grin*

Verruca Genitale sounds like a Bond villainess.

Actually, "Scalzi" means "barefoot" in Italian (Well, "scalzo" does; "scalzi" is plural).

I would agree this fellow's problem is that he's knee-jerk righty who seems offended that anyone not holding his political opinions even exists. I annoy a lot of those folks. Go me.

Weird I read his blog and can't realy figure out what he's actually complaining about.
