Virgil, I'll have to disagree with your last sentence. It's quite
obvious to me when there are two spaces after a sentence-ending period
rather than just one, even with proportional fonts (allowing for the
possibility that there's a font somewhere with a wider space than the
others). I prefer the double space, myself.

Anne,
Don't misunderstand me. I much prefer a single space after sentence
ending punctuation for reasons I have written many times before. I was
just surprised that Jury advocated going further and using an even
narrower space. I consider that a little over the top, even for an
obsessive typophile like me. I doubt that any such narrowing would
even be noticeable by the typical reader. And the optical illusion of
a wider space that Jury notes is caused by the inherent space included
with periods and commas should satisfy the two space folks.
