    I believe the editor used U+2028 here to avoid additional blank lines within the quote.  This is what we get when we use <t> tags.

    I don’t think &br; is needed here, but see the examples below.

Thank you, Sandy.

I think these examples are very creative and horrendous at the same time. What should be a simple thing instead has become a time sink figuring out workarounds. IMO, that is NOT the best use of the RFP's time.

If the RPC sees a continued need for this capability, I think it should be made easy.
