wait, i'm confused.

i am using googles groups web interface.
you are telling me, that when i post it is double spacing, because of something in GG's interface. ok.

but, when i copy an paste into it. it looks close to what i typed in the Xcode editor. when i look at my 
postings, after summiting, there is no odd spacing.
when i reply to a post the text that i see is double space with arrows.  
if you don't mind send me a screen shot of what you are seeing.
