All I want to say is that I prefer British grammar as opposed to American grammar.
For example, if you are quoting the phrase "took good stuff" and want to put into a question, like:
Did Bob say that he "took the good stuff?" (American)
Did Bob say that he "took the good stuff"? (British)
Since the ? is not part of the original quote, it should not be inside the god damned quotes. For this reason I prefer British grammar.
