the roamerOur Lady Joan Mastodon spoke to her knights on matters of style.
A truly gallant toot, she said to them, awaits continuation by other toots. It does so just as the clause that ends in a semicolon invites completion by another clause: without dictating terms. Each of the clauses is free, their association is voluntary and unforced. There is no ruler in the sentence; the semicolon is a native federalist. Let each of your toots be the clause that ends in a semicolon. This is how we shall beat the Great Algo. In style.
