Contractions are not proper English; They are used by cheap adolescents that care little if at all for proper speech.

Kabanaw Wrote:Different. Semicolons connect two thoughts that are very related, but are seperate enough that they can't be help together with a comma. Both thoughts are also indipendent. A colon is used to introduce a list or a specific idea that can not stand on its own.

For example:

Space: It is the final frontier

Many people wanted to travel to space; it was the final fronteir.

There is this crazy new invention called "Spell Check". Have you heard of it?
And it is "cannot". See my rebuttal to ShiKage.
