[12:37:23] <fyngyrz> Good job today... all I found was one misplaced period. :)
[12:38:13] <fyngyrz> For reference: "This is correct." ::: "this is not correct".
[12:41:42] <fyngyrz> Mind you, the way I've always felt it should work is if the punctuation belongs to the quoted material, it should be inside the quotes, and otherwise, outside it... but that's not the traditional convention, so: the terminating period goes INSIDE the final quotation mark.
