Reader Alex sends me this photo. Due to the strong feelings on both sides of this issue, I am carefully avoiding comment on the content of this one, but I really am flummoxed by what those quotation marks are supposed to signify.
As I see this as the only way to cantact you, I will take advantage.
I like this page, it is a hoot. I adore finding little linguistic gems like these. I once found an American Flag on a gas pump handle, below it was the following rejoinder:
In "God" we trust
What a crack up. I have a picture of it.
I also have a post on my own blog wherein you could find a story with two seperete iterations of aggresively used quotation marks.

You may contact me if you are so inclined, and you may also have the pictures of which I speak.
Thank you,
