SOP - please translate the exclamation marks?

Certainly, Sue. As you're probably aware, the exclamation point derives from the shorthand form of the Latin io - meaning Joy. My exclamation marks are an expression of the joy I feel upon reading Joe's above quoted remarks in the light of recently celebrated spats & unsolicited PM remarks from our esteemed pontiff which would render them a complete nonsense. Still, we're only human, eh?
