Thank You SO MUCH, for your time and dedication to this series. (I probably made a few punctuation mistakes in this paragraph, so I apologize. Hence, the reason why I’m here!).
Now, I’m still never quite sure on how many spaces after a period, (is it one or two? We were taught to use only one space after a period, in writing class, MANY MANY MOONS AGO, however, when we were taught “typing / computer-data processing, we were told to use TWO spaces, after a period !?)
Also, I’m never sure of the correct amount of space(s) to use, before or after an exclamation mark/question mark, and before or after, brackets.
Your professionalism, time, and attention to detail is impeccable! …hence the reason, I ‘liked’ this video, and Subscribed to your channel, from here on forward. Thank You So Much
