I think the three period ellipsis looks messy, I prefer two, thus ..

"Lets eat, Grandma."

vs

"Lets eat Grandma."

A comma can mean the difference between life and death.

"Lets help Uncle Jack off a horse."

vs

"Lets help Uncle jack off a horse."

Poor capitalisation can lead to a sticky end also.

Ah'a - I see wh't you did there.

Have to admit, I'm suffering from punctuation blindness at the moment. The project I've just finished included spending 4 months editing a 25,000 word document I'd written down to 16,000 words and I've really stopped giving a sh*t about details.
