Because italics and bolding don't get saved in the archive, I have to identify and put the html tags for emphasis in myself (I don't have Dreamweaver or anything, I just code in Wordpad/Notepad). So to make this easy for me, please use _underscores_ around whatever text you want emphasized, and around thoughts. Thank you! :)
BUT.
If mercy dwells in your heart, then by all that you hold holy, PLEASE put your emphasis underscores around all of the surrounding punctuation, including quotation marks and brackets. Example: _<"What was that?">_ (good) instead of <"_What was that_?"> (bad) That way, I can do search-and-replace in the archives for [space]_ and _[space], and put everything in italics at once. If you don't do it, I have to go hunting for underscores, and replace them individually. Since I only update the archives when I have spare time, this usually means I have hundreds of posts to go through.
