#5 spaces problem

[jjj]

When I wrote a post the other day
(http://frassle.net/mustNotWatch), I tried to use
several spaces to give space between the groups of
words instead of using ellipses. In the HTMLArea and
the Preview, it looked okay. When it went to the blog,
though, all of the extra spaces disappeared in its
visual appearance. When I edited the post, I could see
the extra spaces again in both the default view and the
HTML editing view. I tried using regular spaces (the
spacebar) as well as   with the same results.

Perhaps this has something to do with the HTML scrubber
and may not be something you guys can/want to fix.
