This tiny punctuation mark has been the source of heated debate for over a century, but whether you use it or not comes down to your personal writing style.

Some pseudo acronyms were based on abbreviations at one point, but the original word or phrase is no longer used. Have you been fooled by any of these pseudo acronyms?
