Burning posting format question: " or ' ?

[trof]

If you want to set off or emphasize a word or phrase that is NOT a quote, do you use " or '?
' is easier to type.
You don't have to hit the 'shift' key.
Is there a 'standard of usage' for this?
Thank you.

6. I tend to use " but another option for emphasis is to

CAPITALIZE the entire word or phrase you want to highlight.

unless I really want emphasis - then I do this ...

BTW, I found 2 unopened decks of TWA cards when I was going thru some stuff. Want 'em?
