Vandalism?
You've got to be kidding me... editing superfluous commas is NOT vandalism - and for the record, I'm a former newspaper editor, I know grammar and AP style, and I was CORRECTING your bad grammar. Here's a test for you - read something you wrote with all the commas - say, for example, your inaccurate summary on the Misplaced Pages:Vandalism in progress page - put a nice pregnant pause in there every time you come upon one of your commas. Now unless you're trying to sound like William Shatner, it's awkward and definitely incorrect style. As for your claim I violated 3RR, there you're mistaken. I'm at three, which is why I've backed off for now - the earliest one you could claim was not a revert. MikeWazowski 06:59, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Having dropped in to see what was going on with this recently AfD'd article, I took a look at the article history, and I'd like to suggest that you take a break from editing this article for a couple of days. Let it be, find something else to work on, let the Wikistress levels die down. I know that you want to make Misplaced Pages a better encyclopedia, and I am certain that you will continue to do so.
I've left a similar suggestion to MikeWazowski, because I think it's a good idea for him to take a brief break, too. Not being much of a music fan, or Bloom County fan, I am just sort of looking at this from a distance, and I believe that a few days of benign neglect might improve perspectives all round.
