Heh! :-)
Exactly the sort of editorial help I need.
I've actually bought a copy of "Eats, Shoots and Leaves", I guess I should probably read it :-)
Update I've made the changes locally. They'll be visible on the next update.

    The best book I know of for this kind of advice is the venerable Strunk and White classic Elements of Style.

      Thanks for the pointer. I've now bought and read that, and I have to agree it's a wonderfully concise and elegant description of all of my mistakes ;-).
      Seriously I'm at this very moment reviewing my source text with that book in hand, hopefully the results will be apparent next time I push.
