[stylist] editing question

[Judith Bron]

Joe and all, I think all the advice we are bantying about is valid.  When I 
was sighted and read everything I don't remember anything in italics.  Then 
again, that doesn't mean it wasn't there, only that I don't remember it.  I 
think Joe is right.  Italics are reserved for quotes or thoughts in a 
foreign language.  Judith
