Fun/useful Site -- Eats, Shoots & Leaves by Lynne Truss
NOTE: This is the URL for the new book by Lynn Truss that was previously published in the UK. This is all about punctuation (and who couldn't learn something from this grammar morality tale).
From the site: In 2002 Lynne Truss presented Cutting a Dash, a well-received BBC Radio 4 series about punctuation (?A sparkling series of essays??Daily Telegraph), which led to the writing of Eats, Shoots & Leaves. The book became a runaway success in the UK, hitting number one on the bestseller lists and prompting extraordinary headlines such as ?Grammar Book Tops Bestseller List? ?BBC News. With more than 500,000 copies in print in her native England, Lynne Truss is ready to rally the troops on this side of the pond with her rousing cry, ?Sticklers unite!?
