speaking of the New Yorker ~
what's up with replacing a dash with the two little dots over the second "e" in words like de-emphasize, re-education, etc? i really like it ~ it is the hip thing to do now? the hyphens seem so stilted.
oh, and what are those little dots called? i know i should know =(
and is this a YART?
