[blindLaw] Discrimination

Yes, and, as I've said before, part of being a baby lawyer **is**
taking responsibility for the formatting and more importantly
proofreading so that the highers-up with the larger pay rates don't
have to.

Angie, so to be completely honest I have stopped using Randy's method
ever since I found out it isn't 100% accurate.  It's possible that
word has gotten better at this.  But one instance where it would
happen frequently would be with internal quotes, marked with
apostrophes.  The first, opening one would always be facing the wrong
way.
