Regarding your old poll in the sidebar about typing and spaces, using 2 spaces was traditional in the days of manual typewriters for reasons related to both the font styles and mechanics.
I have decided to dedicate this blog to all things science (encompasing all scientific disciplines, if possible). I hope to be able to write about my PhD with an emphasis on its progress, interesting news in the world of science, and just observations or queries of mine that are science-related. Oh, and anything that makes me smile will be added. I hope your visit to my blog is enjoyable. If not, i hope you are able to take something away from it. Please don't forget to participate in the poll (if there is one running at the time).
Recently, a friend of mine and myself had a discussion about the correct number of spaces to leave after a fullstop in typing. I was adamant that the correct answer was two but my friend insisted that it was one. I proceeded to ask a few more friends who all agreed it was one. This left me feeling as if i was some how misguided in my typing education LOL. Please submit your answer to the poll below.
RANDOM POLL: How many spaces do you leave after a full stop in typing?
POLL QUESTION: Did you know that 'pooh-pooh' was a legitimate word meaning 'to express disdain or contempt for'?
POLL: What would like to see more of on Scientress' blog?

Sara, that's interesting to know about the origin of two spaces. I still continue to use two spaces til this day. Thanks!
