Greatly explained how to put punctuations in/between the sentences:
- Fanboys: comma before FANBOYS (rule 3);
- Internal period (semicolon): Sentence; sentence (rule 2)
- Period: Sentence. Sentence (rule 1)
*special case: Sentence; transition word, sentence.

Brilliant job! It's just the matter of time for your contents to go viral. Just enamored the way you explained those abstruse concepts in ways so simple that no-one so far could have ever done it.
