To Gene Nibbelin:

I agree wholeheartedly. However, I may be able to recommend a solution for
what ails you. Personally, when I spy a misplaced comma or an errant
semicolon my entire person ceases to function normally. I experience blurry
vision, swollen lymph nodes and my bowel control becomes tenuous, at best.
I find that I may only alleviate my suffering by preparing the following
cocktail:

-about 2 grams of Amobarbital (40*50mg tablets)
-generous amounts of vodka/everclear/moonshine/etc.

Combine and enjoy (I think there might be a "shaken, not stirred" joke in
there somewhere).

Mr. Nibbelin, it is truly a credit to our education that we are able to
maintain our composure when confronted with examples of such gross
ignorance.
