Dude, I've asked before... I just gotta ask again. Why do you hit the
enter key after EVERY sentence?


Long story.....
In the late 80's-early 90's I was a forums operator on several Chicago
area based BBS's.
Technology was much different in those days.
If I wrote a message with the sentences following each other you would
have to scroll horizontally to read it all.
Thus I changed to one line per sentence so people could read it
without having to scroll.
This practice has stayed with me through the years and I don't plan on
changing it.
You may notice that others who have been posting messages since that
era also do this.
Just think of it as reading song verses or poetry.
