+[1]Dj992Music I'm glad I helped confirm something you already
believe.* I use punctuation creatively - I do a lot of writing,
much of poetry, and since I am no longer in school, and getting
an A+ is no longer important to me, I'm free to use my language
how I like. I've switched from - to ; to , as a main 'break' for
pauses in sentences through the years; whatever I felt like. I
break the rules because I know the rules; and the rules came
from usage.* They're not set in stone or fixed. If you are so
easily swayed by structure not matching a pre-defined criteria,
and entirely ignore the words within, or the ideas that are
attempting to be presented; well, you would make a good Home
Inspector and could point out flaws in construction, but I
wouldn't want you to build my house. Pointing out flaws is easy;
a computer is easily programmed to do so.* It can also point out
my 'flaws in grammatical construction'. But can a computer come
up with new and different ideas? No.* Not yet. Neither can
people who are programmed like computers.* Without creativity,
society cannot progress.* It can merely remain the same and do
just as it did before, by following the same rules it has always
followed.

+[4]Dj992Music In any case, thank you for being my English
teacher for the night.* I would have gotten lots of red circles
around my papers and gotten an F in English class. Actually, I
appreciate that you read everything I wrote; even if as a
proofreader.* I may hire you as my editor; I can use one. But
here's a question: Let's suppose I allowed my computer to fix my
creative punctuation:* Every dot and jiggle was exactly in
standard, expected format.* All of my Nouns and Verbs and
Adjective followed a proper order.* And - let's say,* I
presented the whole idea using one the god-awful styles they
force Scientists to write in their Journals: What then? How
would you consider my ideas - as they stand, with corrected
punctuation, spelling, grammar? Answer some of those; that might
prove interesting.
