that dratted ....... point!
So - I was trying to explain a grammar issue to an ex-staff member (I'm unemployed since I moved) for a memo and couldn't seem to say exclamation point. I kept calling it an explanation point. I still have to think hard about it before saying it sometimes.
It happens. Dr said it was 'normal' and could happen in speaking or writing. Kinda like when you choose the wrong word for an item. I seem to recall someone posting once about calling a camera a remote or something like that? Cog fog or exhaustion or whatever it's annoying and can be downright embarrassing at times. Just one more issue for the list... oh well.
