<<Using ellipses even MORE readily than Julie.>>
Somehow on-line communication seems to lend itself to these ready ellipses.
I never use them in written (hand-written or typed/printed) communiques.
I've tried to figure out for years why the e-mail and instant message formats
seem to beg for the use of unfinished sentences, thoughts, phrases.
Hah. An entire (small) post w/out a single ellipse. I knew I could do it.
