OP This is not strictly a question (nor an answer) about words, but about punctuation. I noticed that you are always putting the quotation-ending full point, question mark or the exclamation mark before the closing quotation mark. Then you just start the next sentence. Is it a rule? Here, we write both. Example? "This is a sentence!".
Waiting for enlightenment,
Lukasz
BTW: Do you place a comma before later-than-second "and"? "Orange, green, and red" or "Orange, green and red"?
