I'll put this here so other people see it too - it's hard to read single spaced paragraphs on a computer:
like:
Quote: “I don’t get it,” Commander Ed Straker of SHADO complained to Virginia Lake.
She didn’t comment, simply raising one well manicured eyebrow at him.
“This is the third time in as many weeks the Ufos bugged out at the first sight of the interceptors,” Straker went on. “And this last one makes no sense at all. That one flew right into the Moon’s surface, a hundred miles from anything.”
“Well, trajectory analysis doesn’t give us any clues,” Lake said, handing him the reports. “And we certainly aren’t doing anything out of the normal. No new equipment. Even the last personnel change was over four weeks ago.”
“Well, something’s changed. What they’re doing makes absolutely no sense.”
“Maybe an analysis of the wreckage will tell us something,” Lake suggested. “The recovery team should be there in about an hour. Maybe we’ve gotten lucky and they’re having equipment problems.”
Straker glared at her. “We should be so lucky. No, there’s something else going on. They’re lulling us into a trap, or…”
“Or what?”
An easy (sort of) way around it is to take your text (what you've put in reply window) and put it into a text editor like WordPad or something similar.
Find your section breaks and bark them with something like '* * *' or '& & &'. Then do a search and replace for whatever your program uses to mark paragraphs and replace it with TWO of them. The program I use uses
\n
as the line or paragraph end mark.
Then paste the adjusted code back in the reply window. so it looks like

It's a minor thing. But it makes it easier to read on the screen
From what I've read so far, this is promising to be a VERY good sequel.
