People all over the United States are celebrating the new holiday, National Punctuation Day®, which is listed in Chase's Calendar of Events as a celebration of the lowly comma, correctly used quotes, and other proper uses of periods, semicolons and the ever mysterious ellipsis.

Jeff Rubin, The Newsletter Guy, founded the holiday in 2004 to draw attention to the importance of proper punctuation in the development of good writing and communication skills for students and adults.
