Good Reading: "Clauses and Commas Make a Comeback"
For today's good reading, check out this article in The Washington Post:
"Clauses and Commas Make a Comeback"
My favorite part:
"Grammarians are regarded as a rather grumpy lot. They decorate their classrooms with quotation marks rather than quotations, brood for hours over the staff memo that misuses the contraction "it's" and ply students with unpardonable puns."
That its/it's thing – that is totally me! It is my biggest pet peeve. Come on people, you only use "It's" if you mean the contraction for "It is." How hard is that?!
