G'morning William,

 WM> "Sub-paragraphing"? That's a new one on me.

It's whenever I find it useful to emphasize some point by listing 
a variety of actions in ways that the Great One will probably 
incorporate as, say, `bullet points' in versions of His anti- 
Wordperfect software...

    1.  To provide an illusion of orderliness,
    2.  Not to mention an aura of rationality,
    3.  And a perchant for list keeping of things...
        a.  Not ordinarily kept in lists,
        b.  That are both ...
            (i)  Apples and-
            (ii) Pears...
    4.  Etc...

As such stuff hangs off the main paras,  they become sub- 
paragraphs  -  and they lose their impact entirely if anything in 
the comms path reformats them in anyway...

:-))
