You know I do! But it's probably best not to get me started. I would leave
this particular case alone anyway because it IS possible that Richard actually

(I still say that ellipses occurring at the end of sentences take three dots
for the ellipsis and a fourth for the period. But then some would say ellipses
should be reserved for quotations....)
