I'm normally a stickler for good grammar and punctuation.  My pet peeve is 
that most people today, even professional writers, don't know the 
difference between lie and lay.

BUT!!  Mark Rabiner's perfectly acceptable style of writing is 
stream-of-consciousness.  Punctuation, spelling and grammar are 
relative.  I don't always understand it but I love it!  Don't succumb to 
commas or comas, Mark.
