I don't think that is what's happening because I tried typing the text in manually and still ended up with 3 blank lines in between each paragraph.
I read something in the archives that caused me to try putting a couple of spaces at the beginning of each paragraph, but no blank line. Sure enough, that worked! Now there is only one blank line in between paragraphs. I wanted to post this in case anyone else has the same problem.
