Kelie,

The reason why braille uses three consecutive dots is for maximum space
utilization and not to follow print convention.  The UBC alters this,
unfortunately in my opinion.

Pratik, thanks. I had no idea the dots appear separated in print. I think
the braille translator may need some tweaking...
