Ok. This has to stop. It is not a backslash. Stop it. Just stop it right now. Look at your keyboard. Look at a URL. The slash you type is the one near the right shift key. That's a forward slash. The backslash is above the return key and, except for Windows paths, it is never used by anyone anywhere for any reason at all. So, stop saying it. Just stop. OK? Thank you.
