The use of the “and” substitutes for a comma. Don W is incorrect, at least in my opinion and as I was taught. As for Oxford, they are English, what do they know?

Thanks for the input.

Using AND as a substitute for a comma is the way I was also taught. Now I know I’m not losing my memory and going crazy.

The article above is a demonstration of the confusion possible withOUT an Oxford comma.

Is it a NUMBER of ten foot long spikes, or is it ten, foot long spikes?
