Keyboard Reform

All you diligent grammarians out there, I'm sure you are dismayed by the doubled hyphens that I am using to separate the artist's name from their song's name rather than an em-dash. I too regret this. Word will turn doubled-hyphens into em-dashes most of the time, but it would be nice if there were a proper key for the em-dash. Because of this I fully support the proposals for keyboard reform put forth by this Slate article (especially getting rid of CAPS LOCK, which makes an already too-easy thing as being an asshole on the internet even easier).
