Sharing A Ministry
I have shared triumphs like this:
    And finally, after months of cajoling and correcting, I seem to have made a convert! I just edited a draft document in which the writer used the serial comma consistently throughout! Also, another one is halfway there -- he seems to get the general concept, but is confused about the placement of the final comma in relation to the "and" -- he writes, "thing, thing and, thing" instead of "thing, thing, and thing." But at least now I can tell how many items he intended to list, so that's an improvement.
I beat that into enough designers that they do it correctly, years later and in different positions. And if only one of them passes the lesson on, I'm totally reaping the Amway benefits of knowledge-spreading.
