But that's like saying. "i dont use any capitalization or puctuation in my
writing and people can still figure it out just fine i think that periods
and other adornment are just for idiots who may not know when a sentence
logically ends"

Actually, once I used to argument that there is too much redundancy in
the way we normally write in that we use *both* periods, question
marks *and* capital letters at the beginning of sentences. So, of
course, my reaction was to write everything in lower case (easier on
the eyes anyway) and only use punctuation as a means of logically
ending sentences. In typeset text, though, this seems a bit harder to
read. I think that's because the period ending sentences is so small
--- it should be a lot bigger and centered on the baseline instead...
