Why do you have this unnatural penchant for superfluous eight space
indention?
I always thought that indenting the first sentence of a paragraph was
quite ridiculous anyhow, however, i cannot even fathom any need to
indent a single sentence! Are you purposely injecting this noise or is
this some automated behavior of your broken mail client? Either way, i
find it annoying and unreadable. Could you please rectify this issue
and bring signal to noise ratio back to reasonable levels?
