For the same reason people with PhDs don't know how to use apostrophes? :P (touché, I know). Maybe they're just German and they have different comma standards??? :)

That's the thing with commas. You either use too many, or not enough.

Sigh. The comma issue is annoying, but the misuse of apostrophes is my biggest issue. One of my colleagues (has a PhD in Political Science) is one of those people who makes almost every plural a possessive... um, really? Did we not attend 3rd grade English?!?

Ha. I suppose I set myself up for that, putting an apostrophe after PhD. Do I really do that all the time? Why didn't anybody say anything before?

Hahaha! I didn't even notice that! I was actually referring to my department chair. :-)

Ooooh. I thought you were just being fantastically snarky!
