Well, the standard Rule is *two* spaces between sentences.   I know that I
very often leave more, but I don't know why.   Why writing reports, I
generally have to use the "Replace" function to replace all "three spaces"
with "two spaces."   I thought that it might have been MS Word
automatically sticking two spaces after a period, and me adding two spaces
of my own - but if it pops up in my e-mail too, then I have no idea.
