Why the above response? I wrote every line of code that runs the forum. There are many, many available options, I included. Like Microsoft Word itself, most users never use them. Paste from Word is just an option I included but rarely use myself.

Then there is the issue of users on cell phones, and the lack of screen real estate resulting in fewer options. Not only fewer options, but the phones bring the Facebook effect -- many three- and four-word responses. Much less thoughtful posts than from users on computers.

Below using paste from Word icon on full computer:

Now is the time for

• All good men
• To
• Head for the hills.

It inserted properly.
