National Punctuation Day (24 September)

??! Didn't we have this one before? (No, I'm not going to go back and check.)
Founded 2003 by Jeff Rubin, an American consultant on writing and design, "to increase public awareness of the importance of correct punctuation."
I'm wondering just what the founding act consisted of? Sending out a press release? Notifying the National "National Day" Bureau?
Crystal: "It's remarkable how punctuation -- along with spelling -- has achieved such an important role as an index of educability and stylistic mastery."
"Part of the problem is that the English punctuation system isn't simple, as its evolution has resulted in many variations and exceptions."  Hmm. Sounds just like spelling.
"My feeling is that it would be more helpful, in the long term, to spend the day exploring the history of punctuation rather than going out with cameras to find errors, or with marker pens to correct them."
