Yuppperdoodle, a certain country that has "eBook formatters" coming out the eyes, ears and nose, strikes again!

(This happens when people who are trained by rote, NOT problem-solving, see "hard-hyphens" in scans-->OCR Word files that are meant to become eBooks.

They search and replace them--with nothing. That means that every place the line-ending, hyphenation hyphen appears, should [mostly] work, but in those instances in which the dash appears for other reasons, "mother-in-law" yup, the words run together, i.e., motherinlaw.)

But, hey, it was cheap and they didn't have to pay some pricey US-based firm!!!
