(It was found in Eglinton, G. and Calvin, M. (1966) "Chemical Fossils", Scientific American 216, 32-43.) In the following minimal example, the period following the capital W should be dropped as well, being kept associated with the initial. \starttext \placeinitial W. H. Bradley of the U.S. Geological Survey has sought a contemporary counterpart of the richly organic ooze that presumably gave rise to the Green River shale. So far he has located only four lakes, two in the U.S. and two in Africa, that seem to be reasonable candidates. \stoptext This curiosity is by no means an important problem, and perhaps one can identify other such cases (but I have not thought much about it!). Fixing this is probably trivial or it might be a challenge depending on how \placeinitial is implemented (I have not looked into fixing it either). I only report this to help ConTeXt continue to evolve towards the highest quality computer typesetting available.
