Subject: How do I correct for Underfull \vbox ?

I was able to use Knuth's "TeXbook" to determine how to change the 
tolerance to correct for Underfull \hbox errors (badness), but I have had
no success in learning how to do the same for Underfull \vbox errors.
Specifically, I often get this error:

	Underfull \vbox (badness 10000) has occurred while \output is active

Then, TeX adds extra lines between my paragraphs to stretch out the page.
Can anyone give me some advice on how to correct this error?

Thank you,   
Glenn
