Ha I use it all the time but didn't know it had a special name!

Where I come from (not Harvard by any means), we were taught that is the only right way to use commas in a list like that. Didn't realize it was "optional"!

I moonlight as a Jumbotron operator and I'm always using "Harvard commas" on the birthday lists and such, even when the script doesn't list them that way. Guess I don't have to!
