Don't need to know lisp. ;]

There is a new feature where you can use template lines for the latex
header instead of customizing .emacs or loading a local variable.

#+LATEX_HEADER my header here

I use org for the main structure, and then include latex code in my
org docs for tweaks. It works pretty well.

Enjoy
