Re: GEN: Spaces after periods

[Amy Madzinski <Abryan3969@AOL.COM>]

In my recent college courses (1996 or so) I was told that the "2 spaces after
the period rule" is no longer valid because type and print quality have
become so much better in the last few decades. Because of the "sharp"
printing of laser printers, etc., someone decided it wasn't necessary.
Although, those of us who learned to type "in the olden days" do 2 spaces out
of habit.
