More than any other punctuation symbol, the shape of the question mark just sums up the feeling more than any other.

Back when I had to take standardized tests, I'd always get a 95-99 on all the sections EXCEPT for punctuation, on which I always got around a 65...totally screwed me over.![]()

Add me to the semi-colon fans.
"But what people tend to forget...is that being a Yankee is as much about character as it is about performance; as much about who you are as what you do."

the semi colon is soooo senseless though...
whats with that little comma at the bottom, it just hangs there, waiting to fall into oblvion and die. Its like the underdeveloped black sheep brother of the true punctuation power...the exclaimation point!
Straight, direct, little dot on the bottom, keeping it nice and tidy...then WOOOOOOSH! shooting to the sky with exclaimation!
