How to Get Your Paragraphs Back on Roadskater.net RSN2.com

Sometimes when writing in another program, or as I often do, writing in the Yahoo Mail Beta interface, then pasting over to RSN2.com, I will click Submit and look at the article and find the paragraphs have not come out properly. For those who have edit rights on their own articles, you can use a "Paste Special Unformatted" trick in Windows at least to get the formatting back. Internet Explorer doesn't let me do Paste Special Unformatted, so I use WordPad to strip the text:

1. Edit the article in RSN2.com (click on the Edit tab if you have one, then click somewhere withing the text editing box.
2. Select all of the text (Ctrl-A)
3. Copy the text (Ctrl-C)
4. Run WordPad (Ctrl-Esc then look under All Programs, Accessories)
5. Paste Special Unformatted (Alt-ESU Enter)
6. Select All (Ctrl-A)
7. Copy (Ctrl-C)
8. Return to RSN2.com (Alt-Tab)
9. Select All (Ctrl-A) of your article
10. Paste (Ctrl-V)
11. Edit as you like.
12. Submit.

I hope this helps avoid some frustration. We'll see. I'm not sure if this technique would work to improve paragraph formatting for comments. It's on the massive to-do list!
