0I would put it in. As Paco said, this one doesn't have a hard and fast rule. My thinking is that the "depending" clause is in fact dependent, which is usually separated from the main clause with a comma.0-

0I'd find it a little odd without the comma: the voice naturally drops, on "vary". It seems a little breathless, otherwise.02br
