Two spaces after the punctuation at the end of a sentence was not a grammar
issue. It was a typewriter issue. Because of the fixed spacing of characters
on a typewriter, two spaces were used to clearly show the end of a sentence
and to separate it from the start of the next sentence. With the
proportional spacing in word processors and electronic devices, two spaces
no longer were necessary and in fact the use of two spaces clearly
identifies the author as a previously typewriter trained individual.

Some people have an eye for this type of thing.  In my case, I'm drawn to
extra spaces between words or a single space after the punctuation at the
end of a sentence.
