Good point! I could leave out the empty lines, too.
But then you will lose the ability to process it
with an editor which has extra commands for paragraphs
(selection, deletion, jumping over, text reformatting)
which are usually delimited by empty lines.
I have to admit that I enjoy those extra characters which
make empty lines - they make text much more readable.
what was your suggestion about enhancing readbility again?
By the way, when was the last time you
read a book without paragraphs?
Besides, "crowed" is superfluous in attributions, too.
PS: Get a real name - "MuttER"!
