Right. And that silly ASCII business is overkill, too.

I'm starting a new campaign to go back to Fieldata and Baudot. Who 
needs all that fancy-pants punctuation? If you can't get your meaning 
across with letters, numbers, comma, period and quotes (and, of course, 
the all-important dollar $ign), you just don't know how to communicate. 
Oh, yeah, and parentheses, of course... Hell, Fieldata has six unused 
codes. What a waste! Better stick to Baudot.
