    For clarification, the use of semicolons following the last (or only)
declaration in a style block, though not necessary, is fully acceptable and
will not cause a problem. In fact, I consider the use of a semicolon after
the last declaration as being a good practice, as it avoids problems if
additional declarations are later added to a style block.
