Perhaps you are reading a completely different language/genre/era of books?? Or maybe you are cleaning up archive books that the archivist or scanning software did weird things like that?!?!

In any case, BetterRed's very first word was IF....so the point is still valid:
To be fair, I see both. Not sure where/why; haven't really paid attention, as we have our own requirements in-house and I don't change them without compelling reasons, but yes, I've seen both.

I wish that CMOS, et al, would change it to just PM/AM or something. Typing the longer version is a PITA.
