+I've been taking notes in Markdown syntax on my personal wiki on Van Kampen's
+"Stochastic Processes in Physics and Chemistry", and the lack of nice math
+symbols has really been bugging me.  Rather than write everything in LaTeX,
+I thought I'd go back and see if I could get my UTF-8 working, and I did,
+thanks to [Sven Mascheck's excellent tutorial](http://www.in-ulm.de/~mascheck/X11/input8bit.html).  I used Sven's 2nd method: [something like AltGr + anotherkey](http://www.in-ulm.de/~mascheck/X11/input8bit.html#altgr).
+
+I'll probably post my xmodmap bindings once I settle into them.
