Which is a valid assumption since the people reading what most academics write are other academics. The corollary of this (did I use the correct word? I can never remember), academics write their research papers for other academics, not the general public. To me a circle with a plus sign is XOR :) or a hot cross bun. I believe the later interpertation should sit well with most LyX users. You should get one now! Marc
