Glorious News for Grammar Geeks

"Can grammar be hip? Is proper comma use cool?" Oh, it is indeed!



This is slightly old news, since the release of the new illustrated Elements of Style was a few months ago, but the delirious joy it brought me back in October has yet to dissipate, so I wanted to bring it to the attention of all. I only wish I could have attended the gala to hear the operatic song cycle performed by the Omit Needless Words Orchestra.

As one reviewer commented:
"A new generation of English students will soon walk the hallowed halls of education, quite oblivious to their good fortune in having The Elements of Style Illustrated, in all its synergistic glory, bouncing around in their backpacks."
