CRAP !!
When a conjunctive adverb such as "however", "therefore" or "consequently" introduces the second of two closely related independent clauses, use a semicolon to separate them. For example: "She was tired; however, she finished her work." The semicolon here indicates a stronger pause than a comma, clearly linking the related but separate ideas while maintaining the flow of the sentence. This rule helps to avoid run-on sentences and adds clarity.
