[aisle] In-text citation question

I would cite both, because they are in different formats.  If it was a
multi- sentence quotation, I would cite that once, but since it is two
seperate pieces of information, I would cite both.  The way I view this one
is that if all of that scenario was the same, but had two sources, I would
cite both.  Since the purpose of the citation is to indicate the
information, she should cite both.  The student might want to consider
adding in a bit of analysis or a transition so it doesn't look as odd, if
that is the concern.
