asterisk parentheses

cool. yeah, you had me wondering if there's another name for the 'at' symbol... like swirlyque or something...

Post by **Lightning Rod** » February 4th, 2010, 3:21 pm

yes, there should be a fancy name for the 'at' symbol
maybe we should start a contest to name it

Post by **Doreen Peri** » February 4th, 2010, 3:23 pm

we could call it a "rose"... it's often used as a rose
