a: Colon-punctuation ~
b: a railroad crossing

What: "The quickest track to correct colon use is understanding what it is for. A colon is like a railroad crossing that is flashing red. It says "Stop!" and then it lets you go on, just as the crossing sign does once the train has rumbled past."

Useful?
