Possibly, "I do know that" can in fact only be used, when, you are answering the question of whether or not you know the issue at hand (or your knowledge has been called in to question, and you are answering that challenge).

It's not just you that doesn't know. Now, according to owl.purdue.edu, we should use "doesn't" when the subject is singular (except when the subject is "you" or "I"), and "don't" otherwise. But in the example above, I am having a hard time figuring out what exactly the subject is and whether it is singular.

Thus, "As far as I know, Bob is happy" over "Bob is happy, so far as I know". They are equivalent in meaning therefore, but choice of one over another betrays, for me, certain prejudices. I also sense that "so far as" sounds slightly antiquated and is losing ground.

The ::before notation (with two colons) was introduced in CSS3 in order to establish a discrimination between pseudo-classes and pseudo-elements. Browsers also accept the notation :before introduced in CSS 2.
The :before and :after pseudo-elements inherit any inheritable properties from the element in the document tree to which they are attached. For example, the following rules insert an open quote mark before every Q element.
