Well, yes, actually.  OTOH, what DragonBard is noting is something I
think I commented to you on a few years back.

Most important point: it's not wrong.

Most people probably expect newlines instead of indentation.  Newlines
are usually preserved, but sometimes indentation gets stripped out.

There's no difference that I can discern between the formatting of
this chapter and (say, just randomly), the following bit of discussion
between the two of us back in ... '02.  Concerning Shades of Gray,
actually -- isn't that a trip to the past?:

       Only insofar as there wasn't a newline between each paragraph. Nor is one
required. My ailing old-man eyes just happen to prefer them. ;)
