Anonymous Has anyone encountered someone ending a letter with "in solitarily" I certainly haven't. It's wrong. They probably meant to write "in solidarity" instead.

'in solidarity" is a very common email ending for those who work in the labor movement. I suspect it may also be used in on other social movement work. Perhaps the person has an organizing background?
