[001] Keenath Current Version
Changed line(s) 4 from:
n
\
to:
\\\"How \\\'\\\'wonderful\\\'\\\' to see you,\\\" Cynthia grated.

It\\\'s also useful when the verb has a particular connotation:
\\\"Davey!\\\" Cynthia shrieked, leaping into his arms.

Komodin below has the right of it -- it\\\'s about \\\'\\\'overuse\\\'\\\' of said-words (or using really obscure ones).

Abe ran his fingers through his sweaty hair. \\\"And really, most of the time the action in the same paragraph will tell you who\\\'s talking without the need for a tag.\\\" Having said his piece, he sat down and shut up.
