I could live with that, I think. Here is the output:

Here are the newbie questions
Why is there more than one array?
array(1)
What are string(190) and string string(247)? Why are they named like that?
http://www.cegepsherbrooke.qc.ca/~languesmodernes/test/test2.php
Please explain the / (.+)/s in "/News Releases\n(.+)/s"?
My question is:
Is one array not better? (My next step will be to parse the array to
find the frequency of each word ... an array.)
array {
[0]=> "Residential Fire Determined to be Accidental in Nature
(SUMMER BROOK, ON) – May 31, 2012 – The Police Department has determined
the cause of a residential fire to be accidental in nature.
"
[1]=>
"Residential Fire Determined to be Accidental in Nature
(SUMMER BROOK, ON) – June 3rd, 2012 – The Police Department has arrested
two suspects in the case of a residential fire on May 31st. It is now
believe the fire was not accidental in nature.
