But I thought semicolons were my friends...
Quote:
 I have to tell you, reading that statement has sent me in to something approaching an existential crisis, because I'm a total semicolon evangelist; if I write three sentences, you can bet two of them will use one. I love the damn things; I think they really help the flow and structuring of a paragraph, but hearing this from one of the most repsected authors of the 20th Century has opened up a large internal conflict for me. I'm going to have to take another look at the essay I'm writing...  Rest In Peace, Kurt Vonnegut: I never got to reading any of your books, but you've just managed to really screw me up there anyway.
