dear people of the internet:
please learn how to write using proper English grammar and punctuation. The Elements of Style is not an expensive book, nor is the Hacker Handbook. please, buy one, read it, and then post your blog entry. (yes, I’m quite aware about my lack of capitalization at the beginning of sentences. it’s the e. e. cummings thing i’m going for here, despite his actual use of proper capitalization. commas deserve to be used properly, however. they’ve suffered enough as it is.)
