Dun Scotus	Posted: Thu Jan 02, 2014 1:30 pm Talking about the postition of a comma in a sentence, I read an interesting article the other day about the late novelist Graham Greene, and it was all about the postion of a comma in a memo that he wrote on his death bed. The memo was addressed to his authorized biographer, a guy called Sherry, and in the memo, Green said that he authorized Sherry: ''Excluding all others, to have access to my papers and correspondence.'' There was a massive arguement that I think spilled over into the courts in the US, fought out between professor Sherry and Greene's family. Sherry argued that the memo with the comma meant that only he had access to the papers and nobody else. This was a huge bone of contention because the family, together with scholars all over the world wanted to view the papers, which are in a number of US universities. I don't think the issue was ever settled, and what happened was, that some universities embargoed the papers they had and other universities allowed access. All over one comma!
