Three-dot journalism

The reigning monarch of Three Dot Journalism, Herb Caen of the San Francisco Chronicle is, alas, dead.
While I neither desire nor deserve his title, I have happily purloined his use of the ellipsis (those three closely-spaced dots at the end of a line).
I've long used them (starting back when I was still reading his daily column), but didn't realize until recently why they're so appropriate for my writing.
For those who never got their Telegraphy merit badge in the Boy Scouts, the Morse code symbol dot-dot-dot represents the letter 's'.
Coincidentally, that's one of my initials.
Just a little-known fact that makes life more interesting...

(Actually, this blog doesn't use ellipses, but three periods in a row, which actually look different. The Macintosh OS, with which I write, displays the symbol readily, but many Gates-OS machines don't parse it unless you type it as a clumsy Unicode string, which I have, heretofore, refused to learn.)
