Every single MARK! I've yelled over the past year has made the list. Read whatever you want into that. :-) Okay seriously, I have no idea if any of my alerts made the list. I don't keep track. The compiling of the list pre-dates our shout-outs. A year or two after the list's introduction someone pointed out a particularly pithy line to Mark and the practice evolved from there. But there isn't anything formal about it. It's Mark's list that he kindly shares with us for our entertainment and enjoyment (and sometimes our red-faced shame). The method matters not.

Mark, I am not sure what procedure you use for this selection process, but I found that none of those that I Mark!ed, made it to the list, and also that several quotes marked by other people made between your wrap-up for the 2010 list and the end of the year 2010 did not make it to the list either. I am just curious if you do additional selection from the marked quotations and in general, what the procedure is.
