| Is it EVER okay for a period (rather than a colon) to follow "as follows" when it comes at the end of a sentence? |

"This is an example of an incorrect sentence as follows."
Apart from that I cant think of one. I guess you might occasionaly see a "-" or a ":-" , but just a "."? I don't think so. |
