Blogger - How to Remove too much Space between Paragraphs

Here's how to remove that extra space:

In Compose mode (not HTML), select everything, then click the T with the red X on it on the toolbar.

Then manually delete the extra lines. Now there is only one line between paragraphs.

It may still look like lots of space but is definitely less and is truly equivalent to the other lines. :)

UPDATE 7/20/2011: Realize that's only a fix for a single blog post and am looking for a "permanent" fix. I just adjusted this setting and hoping that works: Select Dashboard, Settings, Formatting, and change "Convert line breaks" to "Yes". Will let you know...

UPDATE 3/31/2012: Not had a chance to look at this but this looks promising. Look at the toolbar at the top of the post. It is possible your text is not set to Normal and that is what is causing the extra spaces:
