you cant do two spaces in HTML text anyway, unless you use special characters... (like alt-spacebar which is too much work)

So, this one space stuff is news to me. I must have missed the memo on that.

my CD is in his 60's. He sent me some copy awhile back with double spaces after periods. I told him that the rule was one space. He asked when that rule was made (all defensive) I told him 2 spaces was "old school" and that really pissed him off. He told me I was full of shit and hung up on me.
I took great joy in emailing him an aritcle stating that the 2 space rule was before the time of computers... utimately saying that his rule was old school.
He apologized.
good times, good times.

I dont punctuate atall but if I did I would put a space after my full stop if I did not then it would be wrong so very wrong

2 is always better then 1

We all learned 2 spaces in middle/high school typing class. Designwise, only one space is needed. Avoids the 'river effect' in paragraphs.
NO NEED FOR 2 SPACES
