Note entirely OT: Serial Commas

When we discussed Lynn's intro to the newest volume of the Peanuts Treasury, many of us noticed that in Lynn's unedited text, there were no serial commas, but that the editor had put them in for the published version.

We had some disagreement amongst ourselves over whether the serial comma is necessary. I just came across this very compelling reason to use it. :)
