Subject: The "funny sumbols" FAQ

Rubyists,

I'm proud to announce that there is now a FAQ entry describing most of the
@!#$#%^-etc you see in Ruby code.  This is thanks to extensive discussion on
the list, and hopefully will be of great help to newbies in the future.

So in future, if someone asks what a certain symbol means, by all means answer
their question, but also point them to the FAQ for further information.  It's
question 6.12, which we'll all forget and which may change.  Also, they may not
be able to find the FAQ, but that's a different story...

Thanks again for all the input.

Cheers,
Gavin
