um, speak for yourself. I have tried to train myself *not* to write
articles simply as a mimic of how i used to write by hand. on the
contrary, when i write by hand these days i put in `generic markup'
i must admit i am puzzled to follow this discussion on the _LaTeX_
list. surely people here are by definition believers in uncluttered
structured markup? i can appreciate the Knuth approach of writing
as typesetting, but if i was going to do it, i wouldnt use LaTeX
