Paul .. you mean the ##? I was a journalist earlier in life. When I first started out of college we'd end our stories with --30-- ... but that was eventually replaced by the number signs.
BTW, I read your piece on worker-owned media. Well written and an interesting angle. My first inclination was it wouldn't work, but I'm going to give it more thought. However, the current business models are outdated and the end products -- as you pointed out -- are not serving consumers.
Yes...I just wanted to use the word dinkus. (Google: A dinkus is a typographical device to divide text, such as at section breaks. Its purpose is to "indicate minor breaks in text", to call attention to a passage, or to separate sub-chapters in a book. An asterisk used this way is thus a type of dinkus: nowadays this usage of the symbol is nearly obsolete.) I was in the printing trade for the first 20 years of my working life. LOL. Thanks for reading my articles, James.
