Quick: Need an "authoritative" reference for "one space after ending punctuation"
#6
I use two spaces. But I guess I did learn on a typewriter. Why does it matter to you? I think this is a matter of style and that writing in the English language is now flexible enough to not have set rules for personal writing. I can see standards for publishing, but that is a different question when the doc is being professionally laid out. Coherent sentences that make sense seems more important, and more a lost art than punctuation.

(oops, I put two spaces after the periods in this post; except, is it taking them out when I post? testing. testing. testing).
