The Solicitor General's Baffling Brief Inwards Lucia V. Sec

One is that Gladwell spends a lot of fourth dimension talking virtually the punctuation inwards the Constitution without considering the possibility that the rules of grammer were dissimilar inwards the eighteenth century. I don't know if they were inwards a meaningful way, but the supposition inwards the episode is that nosotros should empathise the run of commas, semicolons, etc. equally they are us
