Thankfully, I bought the 5 DVD box sets with all the shows—1975 to 80, back in the day. The only thing missing on those were the hand painted photos of the guest hosts that ran during breaks while the band played in the background. Since it was a live show, sometimes they would run long, so they cut those from the collection.

No problem. I was wondering about Loraine Newman's lack of visibility, but I did some looking.

Yeah, I was already legally an adult when SNL debuted. Saw the first episode even. I think that lead to the disappearance of the Candygram. Long time SNL viewers will get that.

So, you also erroneously fancy yourself a Semantics Specialist. Not only are you attempting to speak in the context of punctuation, but, if you were the Grammar Nazi you claim to be, you would know that one of the many aspects of grammar is punctuation. Many grammatical rules cannot be followed without punctuation; therefore, it does form part of grammar.
