I was trying to think of how I handle serial commas in my technical
writing,
and couldn't find any examples. Then I remembered: lists of more than two

items go into a bulleted or numbered format. Not an official Rockwell
Software
standard, but a practice that my mentor strongly recommended. I forgot
about it because it's automatic for me now.

Katherine Pyle asked about the acceptability of the serial comma in
British
English.
