Punctuation matters!

The 24th of September in the USA every year they celebrate punctuation. Can't believe that? Then visit the site National Punctuation Day. 
There's even a contest on "how punctuaction changed my life"...
Well, seriously, the contest is on "how National Punctuation Day® has affected the way you think about punctuation (or not), and how the holiday has affected your writing (or not)."... that's much the same as changing your life, since the right punctuation can save lives :)
