Celebrating the Semicolon in a Most Unlikely Location -…

Art & Design – This probably doesn't belong in Art/Design, but I didn't know where to submit it. Semicolon sightings in the city are unusual, period, much less in exhortations drafted by committees of civil servants. In literature and journalism, not to mention in advertising, the semicolon has been largely jettisoned as a pretentious anachronism.

All punctuation is meant to assist the reader in comprehending what's been written. Anyone who really wants to communicate well in his/her writing better learn decent punctuation. The semicolon is an excellent device, much under-used (in a correct way).
