   Commas denote genera, dashes are families, semicolons are orders and   
   colons are phyla.   Run-on sentences are polyphyletic groupings.   
   Sentence fragments are newly discovered mutations still in need of   
   classification.  Parenthetical asides result from horizontal gene   
   transfer.
