Now I would have thought that when this is invoked, it would produce a
box with a medium skip before and after, but in fact the skips happen
inside the box, which is flush with the previous and following
paragraphs. Does anyone have an idea how I can change this behaviour?
choose \medskip if \bigskip is too much
\newenvironment{myBox}{%
\par\bigskip
\noindent%
\begin{lrbox}{\@tempboxa}%
\begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\columnwidth}%
}{%
\end{minipage}%
\end{lrbox}%
\fbox{\parbox{0.5\columnwidth}{\usebox{\@tempboxa}}}%
\par\bigskip
}%
