Please don't use uppercase for emphasis. If you want to emphasize a word or phrase, put asterisks around it and it will get italicized.

Tangentially to this, is there any way to view the actual raw text of a (arbitrary) HN post? Because there are no asterisks in your displayed text. Clearly the text exists, because 'edit' links work, but there doesn't seem to be any way to retrieve it from a post you can't edit.

Sorry, but I don't believe there is.

>>dang+Om1
Pity. Thanks for the confirmation that I wasn't missing something obvious, at least.

If you need something like that in specific cases you can always email hn@ycombinator.com.
