* ..., etc.). Other sentence... <-- This one, except that I use
* ..., etc.) Other sentence... two spaces between sentences.
* ..., etc.) Other sentence... Neither the sentence nor the
abbreviation may be denied its
inalienable period... though
they'd share the same period if
the parenthesis weren't there.
PS - It's nice to avoid the ".)." ending if possible, though...
