Spacing between paragraphs

Please put spaces between paragraphs and don't make paragraphs longer than 5 to 7 lines because reading on a screen is hard.

If you're using MS Word or other word processor, there are options that fake a space between paragraphs while viewing the file in the word precessor. Those are not visible when converted to HTML. You need actual blank lines.

The easy way to provide blank lines between paragraphs in MS Word is to search and replace ^p with ^p^p. Then you can search and replace ^p^p^p with ^p^p* * *^p^p to restore and make visible any section breaks that may have disappeared.

It's really not hard and it makes things much more legible. I do it all the time with my postings.

Hugs,
Erin
