WARNING: At times, I get quite preachy about the Oxford comma. As I said on Facebook, I'm rather passionately attached to the little curleque. Some might even call it a love affair. A series without the final comma has a weird look of incompleteness about it that puts me off. My attention is caught by the missing comma, rather than the thought the writer expresses. That's to say nothing of the lack of clarity that can result from the missing mark.
Thanks to Ann for the wall post on Facebook from The Grammar Police.
