If you click on the Show/Hide (¶) button and it reveals a ¶ after the words
"rules" and "talking", See the article "Cleaning up text pasted from the
Web†at:
Press Ctrl+Shift+8 or click the ¶ button to display nonprinting
characters. If there are paragraph marks (¶ symbols) or manual line
breaks (left-pointing arrows) at the ends of lines, delete them. Press
Ctrl+Shift+8 or click the ¶ button again to turn off the marks. (See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/NonPrintChars.htm.)
and download emailStripper. It works great to eliminate all the >'s, line
ends, and paragraph breaks inside of a paragraph. It works in one pass and
is very quick. It does insert a short advertising paragraph at the end of
the cleaned up document but it is easy to remove. It is free.
