A request.

People! If you're going to write out "slash" rather than using the character conveniently provided for you down there below your left pinky, underneath the question mark, specifically "/", may I humbly request that you please please please do so only in contexts where it is not potentially ambiguous with the genre of fiction.

Specifically, I just read someone refer to "mom-slash-writers" and wondered if that was anything like "Kirk-Spock slash writers".

Aren't the forward slash/question mark located on the right hand side of the keyboard, rather than the left?

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
