Keith has other designs on his blog. A couple seem like better options than the one we see here.eden unger bowditchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17874537224610872095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-46476608279913282202012-11-24T17:17:54.463-06:002012-11-24T17:17:54.463-06:00I am both honoured and intrigued and greatly appre...I am both honoured and intrigued and greatly appreciate your comment, Keith. Shady Characters looks like a fabulous book (I've got Eats, Shoots, and Leaves and find nerdish pleasure in examining the misadventures of punctuation)For ANYONE who finds the interrobang interesting (and I am now partial to the akas ‘exclarogative’ and especially‘consternation mark') how could you miss his link above?! (or is it !?...?)Again, thanks, Keith!eden unger bowditchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17874537224610872095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-12121595783665039612012-11-24T16:25:28.620-06:002012-11-24T16:25:28.620-06:00I can see why it never caught on, as it would be d...I can see why it never caught on, as it would be difficult to distinguish on the page, but I wish it had.
