Isn't "one space or two" a matter of local style?
I suppose whether Word 6.0 adds a space after a period (I use Word 2.0, but
the program does what I tell it to do) is really correct depending (not on
my definition of "period correctness") on what Uncle Billy (Gates :->)
deems to be correct...
Have a great Wednesday.
