While we're on the topic of punctuation and pedantry, your use of the
comma in that last sentence is wrong. There should either be a
conjunction after the comma, or else the clauses should be separated
by a colon, semicolon or full stop. I actually quite enjoy your
writing style but for this one recurring quirk.
