The hanging is a paragraph characteristic: the first line does
not indent, all others do. So, it would not work as desired even
if it did behave as advertised.

Anwyay, just remove the hang=100 line. The output of that
looks fine to me.

Cheers, taco

Because you begin a new paragraph. Just remove the empty line, and it
should be as you want.
