What the Post allows

I'm bored, so I just did a test to see what punctuation and special characters are allowed on the Washington Post's crippled comments areas:

~ ! @ # $ ^ * _ ` - = [ ] \ { } | : , . / ?

They don't allow apostrophes, parentheses, or quotation marks. Maybe it's so they can sneer at the poor writing skills of the people who criticise them. :D
