Hello all.

I have a little problem here with AmSTeX.

My .tex file looks like the following

  \topmatter

  \title blah \endtitle
  \author blah \endauthor
  \affil blah \\
      blah \\
      blah \endaffil
  \date{March, 1999}

  \endtopmatter

  \newpage

  \document

  \baselineskip=24pt       % for doublespacing

  \heading Introduction \endheading

  Text, more text, more text, etc.

  \enddocument

Well, the text in the Introduction got beautifully doublespaced,
which was what I wanted.
However, the multiple lines in my affiliation *also* got
doublespaced, which was

	1) not what I wanted

	2) quite a surprise

Any thoughts on why this happened?  What's the cure?

Thanks.
