Hi everyone. I have a couple of (probably simple) questions about how to format some text in a paragraph.
 
 First up is the easier one to explain: If I have scientific words that I
 want italicized, is that best done with <em> or a <span>? (My guess is
 span).
 
 Second thing: If I have several lines of text to put into a <p> and I
 want to keep the text within a certain number of columns in my text
 editor (instead of having the whole paragraph taking up one really
 really long line), is it a good idea to manually press ENTER where I
 want the text to stop, or does that somehow affect the formatting? One
 thing it does affect, I can say, is when you need to go back and change
 the text, then you can see where you pressed ENTER. Should I just do a
 wordwrap instead?
 
 Thanks!
 John
