: Oh, it just seemed to me that the problem of quoting names and foreign

: Hiragana is used in Japanese, for what westerners would usually use italics.
: I printed out my _paghmo' tIn mIS_ today (and the fonts are excellent,
: Lawrence; maj! I think there was some kerning problems with the p, but
: apart from that, impressive!), and decided to have all the proper names in
: Mandel. It looks... well, it looks OK.
