Jane Galt's co-blogger, Mindles H. Dreck, felt it necessary to point out that cicadas are not locusts.
Of course not. This is Cicada. These are Locusts.
Update:
As Mindles has pointed out, he did not in fact originate the distinction, but was simply the one who saw fit to bring it to our attention.
Actually, that parenthetical was straight from the linked page, but I see by your links where you went with this (entymoblogically speaking).
