I really appreciate the work going into this website, but the readability of the daily newsletter would be much improved by adding a semi-colon after each phrase. In addition, it can be momentarily confusing when a phrase containing one or more commas also has a comma to end it. This has me gritting my teeth every day! I know there's been recent discussion in various publications about whether to drop the semi-colon altogether as hardly anyone still uses it (no doubt connected with the rise of 'your' for 'you're', et al), but it still has its uses, and this is a good example of that.
