+##Use semi-colons
+
+There are many more ways that things can break *without* semi-colons then *with* semi-colons.

 ##Use function expressions over function declarations
 
 The function expression is clearly recognisable as what it really is (a variable with a function value). Additionally, it helps organize code so that all variable declarations appear at the top of a file, and invocations follow. This gives some predictablity when others are reading your code, allowing for a more consistent structure.

+##Always use `===` over `==`
+
+`==` does [implicit coercions](http://dorey.github.io/JavaScript-Equality-Table/), which can
