Heh. We were talking about similar things in RinkChat a couple nights ago, and how many programmers follow the habit of putting periods and commas outside of the quotation marks. It's more logical, after all-- and it makes a *huge* difference when it comes to writing computer code.

There's a big difference, after all, between
/ / / / cout << "Hello world";
and
/ / / / / cout << "Hello world;"
namely, that one will actually compile, while the other will only lead to numerous errors.
