Is and are are interchangeable.

Unless you’re an anal retentive grammatical police NAZI.

I’ll make a note that you are and we (the non-anal) can be certain to keep tabs on your future digital offerings of wit and wisdom.

Really? You're calling me a grammatical police Nazi, when you used improper grammar to insult someone else's writing ability? Talk about the pot calling the kettle black. You're not going to be happy until you've got the irony so thick you can cut it with a knife.

I never correct people's grammar or spelling when they are simply posting a message. I only do it when they are insulting other people's writing. Hence the "irony alert". You should take some of your own advice. And "is" and "are" are interchangeable?
