@ Giovanni: the manual says \n:nil does not work. I played around with it
anyway but was unsuccessful. Bummer as it seemed like it would have been
perfect...

@ TIm, I am aware of this option and it's what I was referencing in the
original note with:

But what about my point that currently all my posts do not use this? When I
experimented with this option yesterday it turned old posts into huge run-on
paragraphs with no structure, hence I don't really think it's an option
unless I re-edit every post. Going forward, it'd be easier to somehow get
rid of line breaks... though maybe I should just write my own template or
something. I don't really use <p> in my posts anyway but prefer the single
line space created by just on <br \>.

I dunno -- any thoughts? Should I re-do like 30 posts for this? Is there any
other way?

Thanks for the help, all.
John
