14. Actually, there is no one being held responsible for this sentence because it is clear that no one wishes to ensure that its meaning is clear, and I, as the sole proprietor, have no other choice but to assault the reader's sensibilities, and the reader knows this.

Ans. (one of many possible)

Actually, there is no one being held responsible for this sentence because it is clear that no one wishes to ensure that its meaning is clear. I, as the sole proprietor, have no other choice but to assault the reader's sensibilities, and the reader knows this.

Here again is a situation where there is a run-on sentence. There are two conjunctions and three independent clauses.

One could choose to break the sentence apart between indpendent clause number 1 and 2 or between 2 and 3. Or one could choose to write all three as separate, stand-alone independent clauses.

Here again the last independent clause:

the reader knows this

seems to have some continuity with the previous independent clause " I, as the sole proprietor, have no other choice but to assault the reader's sensibilities." Therefore, the choice to link independent clause 2 and 3 in a compound sentence seems appropriate. This ould leave independent clause as a separate, stand-alone independent clause.
