He only removed apostrophes and quotation marks.

I don't think you should remove periods or question marks, and removing the colon can have disastrous consequences.

Indeed, and if you ban the period there will be a lot more babies.

They took it out of alphabet soup in the 60's and it still tastes the same.

Speaking of alphabet soup, does Spanish alphabet soup have any ñ (eñe)? How do they get the squiggle to float over the n without attaching it? If they don't aren't they missing an important Spanish letter?

Hey did you hear about the apostrophe that slipped? He fell into a comma.
