Hi, Yeah, an elipses would be better than a question mark. My vote is still for a colon, but I could live with an elipses. Having a question mark is too weird.

Re: [Audyssey] Incorrect link
I quite liked the intonation of the ? symbol version, and, not really relevant, but that's just using it with winfrotz 1.16, with MS Anna, windows XP implementation, set as the computer's default SAPI voice at this stage.
