Hmm, I'm on the old side, but I never saw any reference to double
spacing being outdated except in Internet / HTML / computer related
discussions -- it makes me suspect that somebody decided putting two
spaces after the punctuation ending a sentence would be too difficult
for a computer to deal with (or didn't even know it was the established
practise) and simply ignored it.  (KISS?)

That suspicion sort of destroys my faith in computers / programmers. 
(Well, it might have been destroyed before then ;-)

(sorry, not intended to sound like a rant)

(Two spaces are still used in all the business correspondence I send and
receive.)
