 * I am using the Atahualpa Theme and the UltimateTinyMCE editor.
 * When I add more than one space between words the actual number of spaces inconsistently
   changes when I Preview and when I go back to the Visual editor, the inconsistency
   is now there.
 * For example:
 * One Red
 * Six Items Blue
 * Newspapers Green
 * Ends up as:
 * One Red
 * Six Items Blue
 * Newspapers Green
 * Has anyone else ended up with this unwanted change of spacing?

 * Wow!! Even my post is not working correctly. In the Ends Up part of the example,
   I had put 4-6 spaces between the first and second columns but as you can see 
   the extra spaces were deleted.
 * Even more strange is that I switched to the 2013 Theme and the erratic spacing
   problem went away.
