There are some punctuations that are interestingand there are some punctuations that are not. Let us begin with
thepunctuations that are not. Of these the one but the first and the most thecompletely most uninteresting is the
question mark. The question mark is alright when it is all alone when it is used as a brand on cattle or when itcould be
used in decoration but connected with writing it is completelyentirely completely uninteresting.

It is evident that is you ask a question you aska question but anybody who can read at all knows when a question is a
questionas it is written in writing. Therefore I ask you therefore wherefore should oneuse the question mark. Beside it
does not in its form go with ordinary printingand so it pleases neither the eye nor the ear and it is therefore like a
noun,just an unnecessary name of something. A question is a question, anybody canknow that a question is a question
and so why add to it the question mark whenit is already there when the question is already there in the writing.Therefore
I never could bring myself to use a question mark, I always found itpositively revolting, and now very few do use it.
