Don't worry he hasn't replied to any of us lot about anything we've all asked either. You're not being singled out 
Now....question is...do I have to make a page of interrobangs, can I keep Traveller's, or will I get a picture? Not to mention is anyone ever going to pick this!

Kat, could you just include Traveller's code for an interrobang in your entry?
?
!
It's not strictly legal in GuideML, but you could get a special dispensation, since it is needed for the entry. Then if the Eds object you could get them to do a GIF picture for you of the same thing.

Thanks for that thought. I've added it and put a bit in in the coding to say that I know it's not legal Guide-ML but that I wasn't sure whether there would be a picture or whatever.

I didn't know you could put comments into the GuideML like that.

Hi Kat,
I like this entry a lot! What a idea! It's very well explained too. Thanks!
The last bit of the first paragraph was a bit strange: "unfortunately not all things are successful, including punctuation". It seems to suggest that punctuation itself was not successful. Perhaps this could be changed to "unfortunately many innovations, such as the interrobang mark, were not so successful".
Good entry!

Hmm yeah I pondered that sentence but couldn't work out what was wrong with it so thank you, that's now changed.
