Hi Larry,

And that's the problem.  Markdown is ill specified, poorly thought out,
and in consequence there are many dialects of Markdown.  Thus
http://commonmark.org/  and  https://xkcd.com/927/

It's good a Markdown is working for you, but it and its ilk need to die
out.  Others did a better job, e.g. http://www.methods.co.nz/asciidoc/
