In R Markdown I can type the following code, knitr it to HTML, and a horizontal rule is created underneath the heading, but not underneath the text. If I paste the same code into this StackOverflow pane I'm typing into right now there are horizontal rules under both the heading and the text. Why does R Markdown leave out the second horizontal rule?
