I've heard of that guy! He's nothing but trouble!

Did you have the setq and cons around it? That appends the custom
values to the existing variable.

(setq org-export-latex-classes (cons '("aisarticle"
     "% BEGIN latex
          % END latex
"
     ("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")
     ("\\subsection{%s}" . "\\subsection*{%s}")
     ("\\subsubsection{%s}" . "\\subsubsection*{%s}")
     ("\\paragraph{%s}" . "\\paragraph*{%s}")
     ("\\subparagraph{%s}" . "\\subparagraph*{%s}"))
 org-export-latex-classes))

Glad to see my experiments are coming in handy!
