Actually, In America, the extra comma is correct the same as color is spelled without a u. Just a different dialect of the language, not incorrect.




brian brian, calm down.. i didn't say it was 'wrong' i just said i hated it!.. haha.. i know it's not 'wrong' (although it is here) .. that's why it has a name ('oxford comma')

Hang on, hang on.  Let's not misconstrue the true prupose of this thread.  I am simply fulfilling Rule #3. Slagging is perfectly acceptable in this case, as long as all parties are consenting and give as good as they get.
