I see you put a question mark after your full stops. full stops are the end of a sentence, and you're starting your next sentence with a question mark?
two can play at that game matey.

It isn't a full stop, it's an
ellipsis which is also known as an
mission marks or a
suspension. It is used to show the sentence is deliberately unfinished, and shows that the writer has simply "tailed off" into silence, deliberately leaving something unsaid.
So I'm completely entitled to place a question mark after the ellipsis.
And because you seemed to have interpreted what was simply an off-hand remark about randomly dropping capital letters from your posts as a personal affront, I have went into this detailed explanation over grammar. Let's stop it now.
