Scottie: 
    "With the exception of the quaintly outdated e e cummings, 
    I know of no self-respecting American writer of fiction, 
    non-fiction or journalism who, wishing to be read & not
    just mistaken for wee-wee, twinkle-toes, ickle boots, lovable
    tweety me, foregoes the decent use of punctuation, capitalisation
    & basic grammar."
