* Change some wording to make this work with PDF generation -- using a PDFFred Drake2001-01-221-2/+3
| | | | | | hyperlink at the start of the paragraph confused pdflatex; it saw the link start while still in vertical mode, which is not allowed. Including text before the link forces horizontal mode.
