I found this interesting because in college I had six points taken off an otherwise perfect grade for a paper for putting the period outside of the quotation mark (on one dang sentence). My reasoning was that the item inside quotations wasn't a sentence in and of itself. Anyway, this argument fell on the deaf ears of my professor. To this day, I always wondered who was right.

I guess it goes back to this: it all depends on the reader.
