 * what could cause the stylesheet header to appear all in one line, then repeated
   a second time beneath that in the WP Admin Appearance -> themes.
 * this is a custom theme I’m developing.
 * this is the header:
    /* Theme Name: Biz Description: An HTML5 CSS3 theme Author:
   Sidera Design */
 * and the text that appears in the admin:
 * Biz Description: An HTML5 CSS3 theme Author: Sidera Design by Sidera Design
 * An HTML5 CSS3 theme Author: Sidera Design
 * All of this theme’s files are located in /themes/bizwp.

 * Very strange. It seems like it is file related because I re-purpose another stylesheet
   from another theme and it works properly. But if I cut and paste the exact same
   header to the old stylesheet it breaks.
 * I have used winmerge to compare the file types, and they appear to be the same,
   carriage returns etc. I tried to upload using different formats through the ftp
   client and still does not affect.
 * So a quick solution is to resave an existing working style.css file and rename
   the parameters.
