Paragraphs and Line Breaks

[Angie Ahl]

Sorry. When I'm doing Regex my ability to speak any other language 
disappears.

I'm basically trying to convert a load of plain text to Markdown and 
this means changing each single line break to space-space-return.

I can't see why John chose space-space-return in the first place.

I've changed my copy of markdown and it's working beautifully.
I don't image John would have made it space-space-return without a good 
reason though.
