Martin (1992: 233):
Where the Mood changes, but the Residue is constant, the realisation so ^ Finite ^ Subject is possible:
NEW MOOD

Blogger Comments:
[1] Contrary to the claim, part of the Residue (the substitution) and part of the Mood (the Finite) are constant across clauses here.
[2] In SFL theory, so marks an instance of substitution, a resource of textual cohesion, as shown by the variant ordering of elements; see Halliday & Matthiessen (2004: 564-5). Here it is misconstrued as continuity, which in turn is misconstrued as logical instead of textual.
