Most electronic mail and news I'm aware of tends to use block style
paragraphs, as I do here, instead, skipping a line between paragraphs as
needed, rather than indenting.
In fact, indenting can be problematic in certain quote situations, etc, so I
prefer it when people do NOT indent. A blank line between paragraphs is
sufficient and customary for most electronic forms of communication, IMO, and
PAN works fine with that.
