Thread Name: BS: Grammar: Use of the semi colon
Subject: I'll have your semi colons if you don't want 'em!
If you don't like 'em, and you can manage without, then do so; but don't suggest that my way is wrong because yours is right!

And if you're not sure about a rule, recast your sentence to avoid the problem; but if you want to break the rules, you have to know how to use them in the first place.

P.S. Kendall, do you hate adverbs, or do you really hate adverbs?!
