Stands. It's the exception that proves the rule. They should put one in their own church Bernardo de La Paz Aug 2017 #30

Yeah, since she's never been there, her point stands just fine. greyl Aug 2017 #76

As a rule images of Lucifer , and Judas while we're at it, aren't venerated in Christ. Churches. JHan Aug 2017 #38

Personally, I like to see spaces on both sides of the hyphen -- since it is a phrase separator Bernardo de La Paz Aug 2017 #25

Commas seem to do the trick. Just keep it simple. brush Aug 2017 #36

I agree. The clause is not an interjection, so dashes (em or en) aren't appropriate. Demit Aug 2017 #45

Word won't turn your hyphens into an m-dash if you add those spaces. nt tblue37 Aug 2017 #57

I use LibreOffice (successor to OpenOffice). Word is Microsoft; therefore it is brain-damaged. Bernardo de La Paz Aug 2017 #62

Thanks for the keystrokes for the m-dash. nt tblue37 Aug 2017 #67

Twitter has a character limit which doesn't allow for us to be as ecstatic Aug 2017 #47

Agreed jayschool2013 Aug 2017 #82

Any fonts/keyboard layouts that make em and en dashes possible? TenHouseCats Aug 2017 #59

Yes, it can easily be done with iPhone & iPad keyboards. bluepen Aug 2017 #60
