Hi Fido, just returned from 3 weeks in Phoenix and I couldn't follow the IOM chatline there. Could you please update me as to the cause of the drop in the share price? Was it the Asian Contagion or something else? SR.. P.S. I read a few posts and I note Rocky has a companion.

Francis, I know you are sincere but you are sincerely wrong, in this case.

For starters, nobody in this country gives a rat's sphincter about the King's English but that's beside the point because you are wrong about the comma no matter how you slice it. Let me refer you to a practical, highly regarded source: Modern Language Association of America, Handbook for Writers of Research Papers.

Commas and periods that directly follow quotations go inside the closing quotation marks. All other punctuation marks -- such as semicolons, colons, question marks, and exclamation points -- go outside quotation marks, except when they are part of the quoted material.
