	pias Number of messages: 8114	Ok There were commas between every word Aneta!! But.. it seems that Franck fixed that.

	Aneta B. Number of messages: 4487	And he was right, dear Pia. The sentence doesn't need any commas... I probably know why the requester put them. Becuase of the motto of Harry Potter's school above. It looks like the words were isolated, but they aren't...
