Oxford Comma

It's funny how listening to the other point of view can sometimes change your own.

Example: The Oxford Comma.

This daily thought was going to be "The oxford comma is not optional!". But I figured it needed a link to the wikipedia article so people would know what an oxford comma was, and then I started reading the article. It seems like there are some cases where it would better be left off.

but now that I think about it more, in all of those cases the author of the sentence could have avoided ambiguity by using a different sentence construction entirely.

So now I'm back to my original stance. It should always be included.
