You don't really think I want to start a linguistic revolution here, do you? I just want to point out the use of bracket makes it easier to read (at least for me) and has less room for mistakes. It is also a valid method to describe an logical expression when speaking. Alternatively, you can explicitly say "comma", or use long pause in the place of a comma. Like you said, they're not right or wrong. It's just that I personally prefer brackets.ChoChoPKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07397437768812749182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-935597969005671041.post-75804968067879222042008-03-12T03:14:00.000+00:002008-03-12T03:14:00.000+00:00In the second case, you could opt for use of a ser...In the second case, you could opt for use of a serial comma, thus eliminating any reason for thinking "oh, maybe the three previous to the 'or' are their own option".<BR/><BR/>Serial commas are not wrong or right, it is preference...sometimes they make things less ambiguous.coreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10014867312619338988noreply@blogger.com
