Oh, the number of times I have seen where punctuation changed the whole message.  Thanks for sharing this with us.

As a professional and volunteer 'proofreader' I have laughed out loud more times than I can remember at what wrong punctuation can do to things.

I'm a great one for wrong punctuation I bet you all get a laugh out of some of the thing I write.  I know I do when I eventually read them back.   :) :) :) :)
