[Techtalk] LaTeX: left justified and indented paragraphs

I've got a document that needs to be left justified, so I've been using 
\raggedright, but doing this seems to get rid of the paragraph indents, 
rendering the document a bit of a pain to read.  How do I get them 
back?

I've already tried modifying the length of \parindent, but it doesn't 
seem to have any effect, and everything I've googled talks about 
justification or indenting, but not how one affects the other.  I know 
I can go around setting \indent before each paragraph, but I find it 
hard to believe that that's the only way to do it.
