RE: spelling and grammer, grammar, gramming :)

My theory:

A sentence is a sentence and it ends with a period/full stop. If it is
contained within brackets, the period/full stop still comes at the end of
the sentence, irrespective of the bracket :).

I was taught the same thing. "One to ten" is spelled out, 11 to infinity is
shown numerically. I'm not sure why...I sort of stick to it, but often just
do what looks best at the time.
