Shouldn't there be only one space after the period rather than two?
Back in the typewriter/cave man days, the two space was mandatory, but
FrameMaker and other formatting beasts want to manage the spacing
on their own, thank you very much, and toss the offending
two-space-period incidents back in your face during spell check.
Unless this is an Americanism?
