Slate asks if modern life has killed the semicolon. Let the record state that I am a fan of this punctuation mark; there are certain functions it performs rather elegantly.

Semicolons can link independent clauses without the need for a coordinating conjunction (as above), and they can clarify complex series. They’re also useful for winky emoticons ;-)
