== Regarding blockquotes ==
One hardly ever sees italicized blockquotes in books or articles. Larry has said we should not italicize them, as the blockquote template does.
One usually sees them indented, sometimes in smaller font size.  I use code that calls for 0.99em, and gives three font faces in case a browser does not have the first one indicated.
I prefer 0.99em Comic Sans MS, as it sets the quote off distinctly from the main text. I employ blockquotes frequently in articles that I originate.
I wish I knew how to create a template for my code.

Starting article on 'metacognition' for Jan '09 Write-a-Thon

Regarding blockquotes

One hardly ever sees italicized blockquotes in books or articles. Larry has said we should not italicize them, as the blockquote template does.

One usually sees them indented, sometimes in smaller font size. I use code that calls for 0.99em, and gives three font faces in case a browser does not have the first one indicated.

I prefer 0.99em Comic Sans MS, as it sets the quote off distinctly from the main text. I employ blockquotes frequently in articles that I originate.

I wish I knew how to create a template for my code.
