Something is definitely iffy here. The amount
by which h3 > h2 is just too much for a rounding 
error. The safest way is to load the text and
go for an h3 calculation straight away. The
tool will report all entropy values. Then,
if h3 is still greater than h2, I don't know
what could be wrong. 

Signing off for a holiday,
