Continuing in this fashion is *off-topic* and *flame-fueling*. Worse, it's *boring*. I thought from your new topic you would discuss smileys. AFAIK, smileys were invented by Kibo. IMO, they have never performed a useful function other than being humorous in themselves. I might go for a IJK = "I'm just kidding".
