I just noticed that my browser “cleaned-up” my two spaces after my first sentence. Am I really going to have to resort to between sentences?

I’m perfectly comfortable offending the 0.002% of the population that considers themselves typography geeks with my two spaces. Actually, I may sleep better in this knowledge.

Let’s encourage them to turn their energies to the remediation of the at-home poster and flyer makers who are so blatantly ignorant of proper kerning.

Don’t let this piece of fluff devastate you! Type two spaces if you want to type two spaces. The real cause for devastation is that Slate has resorted to meaningless but click-drawing articles like this one (and that DM has encouraged them by linking to it. Sorry, DM!)

Two spaces after a period evidently crosses all political, religious, and racial lines! Solidarity in error!

The extra return is so liberal it makes your head spin!

One space between paragraphs is needed — but no indention please.
