Oh, I know, and I actually don't care; I write the way that works for 
me, and have no problem with those who write (or publish) the way that 
works for them.  What bugs me is the relentless "you're doing it wrong, 
you silly fools" from people who don't appear to know much about the 
very long history of typesetting.  I don't go around telling people 
they're wrong to use a single space, and I'd appreciate a similar 
courtesy from those who do.
