Ah, thataway.  Nope, I still write posts without the aid of a syntax checker 
or similar.  But you /could/ regard my using a space infront of a question 
(and exclamation) mark as an "intentional error". :-)

Thats the thing. Although I can imagine that an extra comma could be 
/sometimes/ helpfull (the famous "lets eat grandma" vs "lets eat, grandma"), 
I've been reading epub books and I see it /everywhere/ infront of that word.
