a: The comma ~
b: fresh ground pepper
What: "Maybe it's another testament to the tough economic times we're experiencing. Everyone is so afraid for their jobs, so they're doing everything possible to prove their worth and value to the company. These copyeditors just happen to latch on to the comma as a means to show how valuable they are to the company. To me, the comma is like fresh ground pepper. Sometimes it's necessary. Other times it's just personal taste."
Useful?
