If 'etc.' is at the end of a sentence are there 2 periods?
no, there is only one. ================== I can't think of any example where ending a sentence with two periods would be necessary.

One, I humbly submit, is all that's ever needed. ------------------------- Placing more than one punctuation mark at the end of a sentence is superfluous. It is a rule of punctuation that there be only one form of "end punctuation" to a sentence. Whether the end punctuation be a period, question mark or exclamation point, only one is required.
