My little problem most likely. I went back to read some other posts about Cigar and found it hard to follow the lines that contained a large number of words. Started skipping some good stuff. The I put a blank line in between some of the pieces of a post and it seemed even easier to read. So I thought it might be easier on the eyes of others. Maybe I just need to change some settings on my own computer.
I certainly agree that the paragraph would do wonders for some of the longer posts, but whenever I read something that has been artificially shortened it makes me insert a period in my reading long before I should.

Of course I never enjoyed the Haiku because I too, enjoy the run on sentence.
