Nothing Says Over 40 Like Two Spaces after a Period!

I learned to print in 1987 on an IBM Slectric typewriter. Not on a computer, but on a typewriter. There were computers, but they had big disks, and honestly, nobody knew what to do with them. That semester on typewriters remains one of the most valuable lessons I took in school. I can still beat up little kids with my ability to force letters onto the screen just by moving my fingers hysterically over the keyboard.

But one line with a course recorded on a machine has certainly lost its power, and if you're over 40, there's a good chance no one has given it to you. This is it:

You don't need two holes after a full stop unless you're printing on a real typewriter.

Or a question mark. Or an exclamation point. This rule applies to all punctuation marks. One gap is enough. Really?

The reason is that back in the day with printed automobiles, each symbol was given the same space. That is, the letter I was given the same amount of space as the letter M. This is called the monobelt set, and is commonly known as the cosmic one. The extra space between offers is necessary to make it easier to see the beginning of a new offer.

In word processors, computers, and anything other than old printing presses, fonts are primarily used in proportional writing, which controls the spacing depending on the size of the characters. So a proportional font can squeeze 12 characters into the same space that only 9 monolithic fonts have:

If you study this topic at all, you will find many articles advocating essentially abandoning the use of two spaces. Farhad Mandju of Slate goes so far as to say that it is absolutely, completely, utterly, and unequivocally wrong.

Because many of us who learned to print before computers had it hammered into our heads over and over again that we should use two holes. If we don't, we'll put the wrong mark on our work. It's going to take a lot of time to learn this, and until we do, we're probably going to force this old, weird rule on our students. I remember in a computer class in 1998, looking at students' work and noticing that there were places where we had to add an extra gap after the point. It wasn't until 1999, when I took a copywriting job at the New England Journal of Medicine, that I learned of this "new" rule.

When you imagine that you are different from someone else, create something different from others. I like middl e-aged friends, but it's about time to enter the super modern and reduce the time to press the space bar.

[Not only that is it! See the following posts I wrote two months later. "The price of evil: What I learned about teaching through the viral post."

by the way? This is not what I usually write. This website specializes in teaching mainly. For example, if you meet this notebook and become interested in education, you should stay here. Participating in my mailing list, you can quickly receive one week's advice, tools and inspiration in a bit e-sized package. As a thank you, I will send you a copy of my latest e-book "20 techniques that shorten the evaluation time by half". I am looking forward to getting better evaluations!

Oh, how old you got! I can educate the teachers and do so to teach students the rules of this new era! When I used a hal f-width space after a very wide range of memos in the APA page limit, I always thought I was smart, but it exploded here! I basically created two Ruins, but I did not create this. And I arranged it using the Sam s-up of the mobile phone. How long does it take to change the habit of 40 years? How old is a wasteful gap permissible?

One of the readers of Facebook reduced the required spaces from two to one in the APA manual, but returned to two in the 2009 edition (see Section 4 1). He expressed concern. Other readers also stated that in the world of legal, two spaces are still considered normal. This is because classes and laws are not an absolute rule. In both cases, the interval between signs is maintained for customs, and because the space looks strange, it is huge, no, or someone with a seniority believes so. There is almost no doubt that there is. That is their privileges. Last but not least, I have been considering configurations for 15 years now, the two gaps are guided in the first gap direction for the fact that the two gaps look like the gap between 1987 and 1987. So I decided to make a contribution!

I work for a solid engineering company and adopt "global common standards" for all technical reports, procedures, and official documents. After the proposal, consider two gaps. I am 27 years old and I have never studied like this (I rarely used a computer at my school, and to be honest, I remember that I actually saw a printing machine. No)! Every time, for example, when editing and checking real estate, it is strictly observed, so I was wondering why I did so at work, but thank you for your comment.

Thank yo u-I can add engineering to a list of economic fields that I took a rest in two places (the science and science go to me a few days ago). Similarly, some of the people who taught the original rules are quite tight for this preposition, and this is their choice. In fact, I assume that just a few referenc e-information will definitely help people who can solve and manage all the precedent in consideration of all precedents.

Jaune said:

A textbooks on academic and legal methods do not even demand two gaps. MLA, Chicago Manual of Style, and AP use one gap. BlueBook does not include the standards for space after instructing legal manners and follows the Chicago Management (one gap).

Jdsteinb says:

The story posted here is a creation. The transition to a single gap was justified by the powerful issues that publishers want to reduce their own publication costs. The single gap is a posture that has nothing to do with printing vehicles and aesthetics. See below. http: // www. HERACLITEANRIVER. com/? p = 324

Aaron said:

I know why the rules have changed, but it doesn't matter. In terms of kit autonomy, it is better to own two gaps between services. Busta.

You wrote it. Can you find the drawbacks? "I have a suspicion for the fact that the interval between services is observed for normal in both cases, and someone with a huge Ehemista and experience elementary school is actually wrong. Not.

I think there are two skills. What if it leads to an operation? Say. Rather, I, like other comments, are really impatient and unbearable sounds, this is a comment, for example, as a result, I'm really happy to see what is displayed for this. I wrote this without any tight knowing I was completely offended. Reading this will make a proposal to choose a textbook that makes me sound like a stupid.

Donna said: The comma has the obligation to describe "I'm Pretty Sure It Does." But for me, everything is exactly the same. I like how to write. ?? T. Maxale says John of Milwaukee says:

I'm not the first to say this, but two spaces make more sense because they visually indicate the end of a sentence. Try reading a paragraph from a technical document, where the proposition is printed with single spacing, and then try reading the same paragraph with double spacing. The double-spaced paragraph is much easier to read. I'm a mechanical engineer, and one of the staunch resisters of the "new concept" of single spacing between sentences. As a usability enthusiast, I'm more concerned with the ease of perceiving information (the main purpose of reading) than with perceived beauty (which varies from person to person anyway). Having double spacing in a sentence makes more sense.

In fact, the full stop and opening visually indicate the end of a sentence. I wrote to the APA about this. Below is my letter and the APA's response. Two spaces after a full stop does not improve readability. I make a living reading dissertations, and was pleased to see that the APA, along with the Chicago Style Guide, recommends using only one space after a full stop. Annoyingly, you seem to deviate from this recommendation. I'm sure I'm not the only one who has consulted you on this matter. Please reconsider your decision. Dear Walters, your wish was granted in August 2009. The second edition (sixth edition) of the APA clarified the double trailing space and stated that this option should only apply to rough drafts (p. 88). A single opening is always correct and can be used in rough drafts or final drafts. I hope this helps.

No! Thanks for sending this Ellen Franklin Stenger's comment

I think so too. He studied at the Faculty of Business Administration, Britain and the United States, but was hit by his head that after the full stop at the end of the sentence, he had to put two space. I returned to college because I was 45 years old, but the English rules, apafrat, still had two spaces. It is difficult to read sentences with only one space, and sentences flow one after another. I think that the space was one because it was more lazy than other reasons. My 2 2-yea r-old granddaughter followed the on e-space rule, but when asked why, he replied, "This is our way of writing." And she can't write the letters, and she doesn't even study, saying, "I have a spell checker." I don't care about that. Japan is catastrophic.

Adan says:

I am boldly opposed to being swayed by the future, but as a 3 0-yea r-old I learned from the last generation of the typewriter and the first wave of personal computer, I will always stick to it. Yes, I write the text in two spaces. Early home printers manufacture a very limited range and style font that is not more sophisticated than typewriter (a matrix with five options? Interesting). I was helped by the space. But if you make a similar claim, you can't say anything that justifies my stubbornness. The link above insists on saving costs in the publishing industry, and I liked it. Now, I will be happy to draw them as a villain and as a pedanical and unwilling freedom warrior.

I think it's strange that these "two space" will be deleted from this blog because they are not recognized on the Internet.

I think that's exactly right. By doing so, the reading speed is a little slower, and the reader can absorb information about the text better. This is a psychological factor, but is effective. Despite the eas y-t o-read dialogue fonts, the use of suncelift fonts in text is increasing. Serif fonts can be much easier to pay attention to words than Suncelift Fonts (fonts used in this blog). This font looks modern, but has no advantage.

I have heard that sans-serif fonts are easier for dyslexic people to read aloud. Some people, for example, find fonts with indentations to be difficult to read anymore. I swore by indented fonts because I learned through my DTP practice that indented fonts are actually easier to read. But after reading about sans-serif fonts and dyslexia, I found that sans-serif fonts don't hinder readability at all, unless they're something like Comic Sans (some dyslexic people like this font).

ersatz says:

For example, I even get a little nervous when people get annoyed by a full stop followed by two spaces, for example, "they"/"their"/"theirs", "your"/"yours", people who use "lose" as a verb to mean "lose something", wrong introduction of an apostrophe, typing "envy" when in fact "envy" exists, etc. To be honest, I'm already over 40 years old and learned to type on a typewriter when I was a student. After 30 years of typing, it's pure muscle memory to leave two spaces before the dot. What's more, even when I'm using "proportional" fonts, I see everything exactly the same, especially when I see fairly small words on my phone. Maybe I'm just casually following certain habits. But once a habit is established, why should I regret it? Do you understand my feelings? The reason why you should be picky about spelling. As an aside, I think I understand that monospaced fonts exist in the computer world too. There weren't that many true-spaced fonts in the computer world back in 1987. That said, there are still reasons why you should be picky about spelling.

I have to agree with ERSAZT. I find your complaint about the wasted space excuse very irritating, to show that this is actually a certificate from the creators of OLD. Especially considering that you started two sentences with "But" and one with "I". This kind of service system is forced to point out that creators are not specialists, but I would never call it annoying, and I wouldn't assume that you're constructing sentences like this because you're under 10 years old.

It's so cool to use an incomplete offer to complain about a grammatical defect рџ™‚ .

Haha! This is interesting. Which is actually nerve-wracking, for example, this is that, but it is possible to admit that it is not actually necessary or his own preference - to raise the point of a gap or two, I believe that the rule of the double gap at that time has never been changed. In fact, it is not that, at least, in fact, everyone who benefited from this rule here has only been a gap once. In fact, fresh, oh, what is my mentor, my mentor, Jennifer? Where can I find all the standards for beginner writers in one place? CKISNER1, is it okay to start a proposal with "anyway "? Or does it continue after a comma? By the way, it's clear to me at 40 (I learned typography at school, too!). I also agree with Ersatz's opinion - so many crowds for those who decided to apply a small snow-white spot. Very few people understand how to paint snow-white to make the text look good and format it easy to read. UV.

I admire Chicago's style!

Great comments Great site! Enjoyable discussion of this issue. For example, I actually liked the fact that I registered here just to reply. Adding a help site is considered a self-fulfilling reaction, not a responsible conclusion. 2) As you indicated in your own response to royalpa, location is a design issue. Leave it to the graphic artist to regulate when it is applied, or to fix it if they don't like it. 3) Slits? Are you mistaking the useless gaps for Slate as the source? Freelancers, especially freelancers, understand how to break Slate's editorial boundaries as well. "Present a counterintuitive situation, any situation, and someone on the receiving end will be surprised." Great! ". Of course, if you're not going to print it on a typewriter, stop putting holes on both sides of the dashboard.

Experience is an advantage, and so is wisdom. It's probably worth thinking more about how to start a marriage proposal with this sentence. Bukker

I studied printing on a manual typewriter in the 1960s and attended a high school typewriter. After that, I learned journalism at the laboratory, and sometimes enjoyed using IBM Select Tricks. In order to make it easier to edit, put a double break between the rows and rows, and print 8, 5 x 5, 5 on the half liner placed on the copy machine in front of the renovation runner. I learned that I adopt three stars every time to write the cover of the notebook. In 1986, I purchased Macintosh and read my life as a graphic designer and a setter. During this time (40 years), I have never encountered a "rule" of specifying a double break of punctuation. This memo first learned that the double break at the same time was "good", but it was a short period from the late 70's to the mi d-1980s. I get a text file from the buyer and highlight the "weird" interval, start Find/Replace, find a double (often triple) gap, and change it to a single. Every time, I basically thought that people who were in double blanks were receiving law education, but in fact they explain why they need extra support to distinguish the scope of the proposal. do.

If you have two holes, you will be crazy, but there are important conditions. When we learned how to use a printing machine, everyone was basically told to make two holes. This was the same for printing presses. This is due to the fact that the font of the typewriter was mon o-bratof. Our eyes needed these two gaps to see where one plan was over and the right plan came. When the computer became widespread, it was no longer needed. In fact, this is a preparation for reading more complicated ways. I like font design outside the line. When the alphabet font production is over, it takes more than 40 hours. Carening controls the placement between individual symbols, for example, in a combination of AWA. Here, as a result of font members enthusiastically placing fonts, everything looks wonderful. In fact, for example, now everyone will blur these two gaps!

While I agree that in law and academia there is a tendency to value tradition and function over form, as someone who reads a lot of white papers and other official and technical documents, I find that double spaces between sentences almost always improves readability over many pages and hours of reading (especially when using fonts like Times New Roman). I fear that the design rule to move to single spaces is too in keeping with the culture of increasingly concise communication and perhaps without even realizing ergonomics.

Tinkols says:

I'm late in responding to this article, but I just found you. A new reader/viewer/fan. Thank you. Anyway, I'm a legal assistant in a law firm. My boss requires that we use single spaces on all hard correspondence (yes, we still keep hard files because of the issue of unfair practices in this religious society). My experienced administrative assistant and I have over 55 years of legal experience combined. We understand the essence of the problem. The key is how to let go of this double space after so many years. I'm going to share this article with our group today and discuss it further. Thanks for adding fuel to the fire. I liked it. And I like my double spaces.

Tinkols says:

I forgot to mention: The Labour & amp; Employment Group recently reported on the perspective of an HR manager who actually looked for double spacing in cover letters and resumes to single out "old" candidates. Not cool. Not cool at all.

Wow. Definitely not cool. I really hope this article has nothing to do with that.

okiecrat says:

Sorry Jennifer, but I have to withhold permission for several reasons. The first lies in the fact that the "automatic line breaks" that appear in text editors do not clearly define the boundaries of a sentence, especially when reading on a device with low resolution, such as a mobile phone screen. On the relatively large screen of the Galaxy Mega that I am using to write this answer, I cannot discern a pixel of the difference in the spacing between the end of the previous sentence and the comma in the middle of the sentence. Apart from this, it is quite difficult to distinguish a comma from a full stop in the font of the answer window, for example, where an auxiliary gap increases the readability of the word. Secondly, it is considered a generally accepted precedent in the field of technical messages that the generous introduction of snow-white places improves readability and perception. At least in IoT, if this auxiliary place improves the readability of the management on emergency procedures at nuclear power plants, I will try to have it.

Chris said:

Despite the fact that I am actually much younger, I think I am actually similar to the others, and as a result of what is easier to read, I use two holes every time. It has the ability to actually do what you think, the elementary consideration is that this is not worth imposing it on anyone with scorn... Hmm.

The suggestion to name the gap between services drowns my muscle memory. I learned to print in 1962, and my school literally did not have a car with proportional gaps of the typewriter class. My giant fingers bounce twice at the opening without the brain playing a role. Neurologists are more likely to call this a spinal reflex. It's not that important (now this is a universally accepted habit to vent one's anger depending on the preposition of use or style). At this age, I am actually trying to save the few memoirs that are still current. As a result, I will not use my brain energy for creep to suppress this memory.

You know, it's really annoying to tell those who write such a blog, for example, those who don't study at school, this is normal! I'm sorry, but it's just strange to be written in this notebook. It gives a formal impression, and to be honest, if you see the full stop after the hal f-width space, you think you're a person without culture and look sloppy! I will never stop making what is taught! Well, these reductions in language learning are quite scary! Parentheses, OMG, LMAO, etc. are used in text, but never use when hitting a message! And don't forget that the grass is not currently taught! Yes, the children now do not understand how to sign their names with their Italic body! That means that the person who wrote this note is on the trend of the times! I'm not going to answer it! And, isn't we aged 40 and over? ? Postscript: As you noticed, I used a double space after each point! This rudimentary person looks better!

The only thing that the two spaces are easier to read and see more than any other space is a stupid person like a hammer bag. This is a problem without a problem. A graduate student who needed a dissertation came up with this stupid idea and persuaded some people to borrow a cool child's table. They are the same as the loser trying to wipe out the Oxford comma.

In this comment, like many other spaces on the Internet, no one will notice your double space because it is replaced by one space mechanically :).

RDB1960 stated:

I don't think so. I know very well the difference between monoblank and proportional typefaces (my mother was a typewriter teacher in high school, and although you would like to believe otherwise, there really was a printing press with proportional breaks in the 1970s. It was called: IBM Executive). Novelists don't realize that the auxiliary white space is placed at the end of the proposal to focus the reader's eye on the scope of the proposal and encourage smoother reading. In proportional fonts, where busters take up less space than monoblax, the snow-white spots at the end of sentences that help the reader's eye are even less than in monoblax fonts; as a result, there are probably now 2 gaps at the end of sentences, including the more important ones, than in monoblax-typists.

I agree with you and disagree with the author of this memo. I think that the "extra gap" is necessary to visually finish the proposal quickly. I wonder why two gaps must be prescribed so that the busta mechanically rises, if with all the "new technology" it becomes possible to assign one gap of points later, to adopt it manually? Let's not replace grammar standards with technological developments. In fact, how is it now? As a result of you already understand who the call is, you do not need to speak "hello" when answering the signal?

Call from BlueCrab54:

Even if there is a factor that determines the number, I do not see why it is a problem to answer the signal with a simple greeting like "hello". Sure, the number gives a little recognition of who is calling, but not every time. As a rule, a personal number is the name of the person who pays the telephone bill. Sometimes unpleasant things happen when a call comes in under the name of my husband. It is the same when I speak "hello" and someone recognizes my voice as an outsider.

Ibilon says:

This is not a "new technology" rule. This typesetting rule has been around since the days of the single letter (some three centuries before the typewriter). If there's a flaw in this article, it's that it doesn't point that out. Typewriters changed the rules. And you don't need to type two spaces to get a full stop on your smartphone. It's a convenience built into the operating system, so you don't have to hold down the Shift key to get to the most common punctuation marks. If you really want to do that, you can always press the "shift" key and then ".

Zebulon says:

One typing rule that is 300 years older than the typewriter is that there should be more space between sentences than between words. http://www. heracliteanriver. com/? p=324. It's an article written by someone who studied historical typing manuals to see if typewriters changed these rules. This rule hasn't changed. Writing two spaces after a full stop just follows the existing rules when using a typewriter. This is because it's very hard for a computer to know if it should display all the spaces in the text, and equally hard to automatically determine the correct spacing depending on the context. The new rule (yes, new) that the space between sentences should be the same as the space between words is due to the shortcomings and limitations of "new technology". It's simply not true to say that this is an old rule that predates typewriters.

msilvertant says:

I'm not going to feel sick, but what is authority for you? You cannot essentially oppose it. You only have a (... ... there is an auxiliary place at the end of the proposal, which helps modify the cover of the proposal, and helps to repeat it more smoothly. I heard it for the first time, because of the fact that I can do it. I'm a typographer, often visiting Typophile. com, but of course no one of typographers (including modern designers friends) would not say similar things, and even more. There is no doubt that everyone would recommend not to apply a double hole. As a result, you have the question of where you got this information. Did you make a personal conclusion based on your own technology, or did you really do research that is considered from a spiritual perspective like aesthetics? For centuries, the points have been used as the most holes for centuries. Only the publishing of the printing press caused a shor t-term decline of typography. In fact, I know that some of these creatures survive, but you don't want to encounter this decline with printed digital typography.

Zebron Plart:

The authorities have every possibility to work for the actual control of different words, especially those found before the advent of the printing press. That stereotype was a larger gap between services than between texts, ignoring your allegations about revolutionaries. See http://www. heracliteanriver. com/? p=324 for an overview of who the stereotype of a set of words actually was and was. This is not a random disagreement, but an action cast over centuries. "For centuries, the point is then used most times for the gap." This is inaccurate for several reasons. First of all, there was not only a "gap". There were any number of spaces with gaps, and their widths varied. Before the advent of the printed automobile, "one gap" did not mean anything, or at least was ambiguous. Secondly, even when it was the appearance of a certain place, that place was estimated as a distance, not as a number. The distance between the lines was almost always relegated to the bottom of the words. In other texts, including when typewriters coined the term "one gap" or "two holes" by definition (which is not the case), they increased or decreased the gap to get to the appropriate joining level. The width of the "gap" was unstable. And in the end, the rule you pointed out was no longer between services.

Jackie is talking about:

The main idea on the long-running Heraaclitean website is that we are obliged to go back 75 (or 300) years to the extra space and then Punc and actually insisted that publishers preserve the source of the space. Like that's a bad thing. Only to appeal to resistance, we are obliged to remove the double space of words. And why it was normal over 100 years ago is more justified than what has become an aesthetic and practical stereotype in the "modern" era.

He studied at the Faculty of Business Administration, Britain and the United States, but was hit by his head that after the full stop at the end of the sentence, he had to put two space. I returned to college because I was 45 years old, but the English rules, apafrat, still had two spaces. It is difficult to read sentences with only one space, and sentences flow one after another. I think that one space was more lazy than other reasons. My 2 2-yea r-old granddaughter followed the on e-space rule, but when asked why, he replied, "This is our way of writing." And she can't write the letters, and she doesn't even study, saying, "I have a spell checker." I don't care about that. Japan is catastrophic.

Now you are asking this from another source. I am a library member and have been working since the early 1970s. I take into account that it should be printed at this point, but I don't want to see it, as a result I don't use data. Double gaps, a little more white spots like snow actually clearly show the reader on the cover of the proposal, which prepares more and more reading for hig h-speed and absolute. And I'm already 40, and I'm completely indifferent to me who "notices". The fastest, I need a clear and eas y-t o-understand skill of the message. For example, chewing me, for example.

TGODBOLD4 7-Conversation:

I completely agree with you. In fact, my finger (and a huge finger) mechanically illuminates the gap at the end of the sentence twice, and my eyes welcome the help gap. I'm already 65 years old, but I want to continue this habit as long as I read and graffiti. And accuse the incorrect usage of to, also, Two; you and you; and they, and they are. Needless to say that it is an IT. Thank you for the explanation. Pbelle is talking:

How about the inappropriate use and replacement of THEEN and THAT? I often see this. I'm nervous.

Even so, when did we start to bend and pronounce the word "t"? I believe it sounds like an example when you hear an announcement or an advertiser!

I am quite old to hit the right side of the keyboard when I reach the end of the word line. (I have never heard of this rule before. My type writing teacher was not OKR like you. The only "rule" that made me crazy was my career. There was a macro, in effect.

Thank you for your smile, Red Mac! (Postscript) I have never heard of the habit of running and writing the lowercase "L". Running. Really interesting! )

For example, a typewriter with no "1" button was real! I want a nobleman's manufacturer / model, but I've seen it with my eyes. I don't wonder if it was created to save the keyboard space or it was made for something else, but the font looks the same as the alphabet lowercase L and 1 on the page. I was doing it. At a printing shop in my parents' house, I clearly remember that I was completely thinking (or shouted) in trying to use this typewriter: "And the secretary is calm, you have to use L He told me,

mother! I was happy with this rant. I am very grateful for actually learning typing. Literally every day. I'm glad you like the website!

C094728 tells:

In fact, the typewriter has nothing to do with this. Please read this http: // www. HERACLITENRIVER. Com/? P = 324 results. Both options are correct. Use the most favorite font that you think will look better than any other font.

Fluk says:

The use of two spaces is for ease of reading. Even if your computer uses a font with proposal breaks, the introduction of two spaces makes it easier to read words. This is just one of the things that lazy people do not want to make, like learning spells or hitting punctuation. The goal when publishing a document is to make it as easy to read. Everyone has spell mistakes, and does not take into account the people who remember all the grammar standards they have learned at school. But the problem is not there. The important thing is to make the written sentence not difficult to see.

And DontgetMestarted says:

I think this is purely a matter of taste. That kind of management is advice, not law. Those who have learned some space have the chance to keep applying it. I don't think there is any problem, even if it would be a stigma in my 40s or older.

I found this note and read it as follows: I am not going to discuss typography here. I will leave that to the experts in the field. For me, unlike the Oxford comma, this is not an issue. I do not like ageism in unique memes, but the creator has solved this issue to my satisfaction. What confuses me even more is the amount of mental snobbism found in the comments. For example, why do so many of the commenters question that their ideas are considered the only correct ones? Yes, stereotypes change, hence the ongoing debate about the Oxford comma, but most similar changes obviously happen over time. The introduction of two spaces to end punctuation, like the Oxford comma, is still appropriate in some life environments but not necessarily in others. There is a reason for the argument that the big symbol means the start of a new sentence, but for us old folks who cannot always tell the difference between a comma and a full stop, there may be a missing signal that the big symbol is actually a new dedication. I think the geriatric public has "accepted the inevitable" and is more likely to see younger, but

Conhart said:

So you should think twice before hitting the space bar twice at the end of a sentence (ha!). First of all, I think font and letter design is entirely personal, and up to the designer and the user. For example, is there anyone who would admit that it is simply wrong to change the line spacing of a sentence? In fact, in most cases, two spaces are avoided when you break and a new line emerges from the space. Of course, this looks abnormal. Like the false beginning of a new paragraph. And if someone else is going to move your copy to a page that uses a layout tool, arrange for them to do the extra work, since they will have to remove the spaces so they can control the page design.

Great idea. Thanks for actually adding it!

Well, unless I'm under 40. And I agree that I'm an insufferable twit. I'm looking at the data now.

Yoshi says:

The same goes for "over 40." There's nothing to be said about the person being, for example, an insufferable jerk.
