Is that a joke?
- coldtea 11y agoWhat part of it sounds like a joke? That's how it is today too, but it wasn't the case at the time for all environments.
- AndyMcConachie 11y agoThe use of a semicolon in the preceding sentence is what I thought might be the joke. Read the sentence again, Dennis's use of a semicolon is a rather strange way to punctuate the sentence.
