I have tried using the .1C command followed by the .2C command to format
some text.  Howevery, when I tried to return to using the .1C command, it
forced a page break.  The book UNIX Text Processing (Dougherty and 
O'Reilly) said this would happen.  

My question:  Does anyone know how to go from .2C to .1C formatting ON
THE SAME PAGE?  Is there another macro that does this?

Thanks in advance!
