<p>Counting a space as a character? I was already to copy and paste, and now I have to delete about 5 more sentences.</p>
<p>Well, technically speaking, a space is just as much a character as anything else. A space is 32 in ASCII, btw.</p>
<p>Someone should have pinned a thread about how long an essay can be.</p>
<p>I don't know how many "how many characters can the essay really be" posts I've seen. Gah.</p>
<p>Don't discriminate against the spaces man. Without them, life would be far too much like an e.e. cummings poem. That's only a good thing sometimes.</p>
