Ah, I knew there was hope for those of us trapped in the multilingual hell of 
comparative studies!   I don't even know how to typeset Sanscrit, let alone 
Tibetan, so I will go off and try to get in the Logic symbols for my final exam.  
That should both burn off karma, and create a whole bunch more.  Sorry.
