Thanks to all for your help. I really do appreciate your time.
I cannot figure out why I'm getting the brackets that no one else is
getting (Rasmus -- my problem is that they're there and I don't want
them), but I now have a filter that will take them out:

Hi John,
sorry, I can't help you with the filters.
On the other hand, I don't see any reason why you gt whose square brackets.
I tried different versions of org-mode, and never got *empty* square
brackets.
E.g. I tried with org-mode 8.0.5
Hi John,
I think your search string might better be "\[\]", or something along

Hi, list --
I understand the value of working on this myself -- what better way to
learn? -- but after a few hours of reading the docs and scouring the
list, I've reached the point of seeking at least a hint for where to go.

I don't think I had those square brackets, yesterday, but see at the end
about them.
Anyway, I thought of something which gives me a result I'd say is Ok for me:
1. Change the .org files as follows
- add a space to empty headings (as written yesterday)
- add "texht:nil" to the #+

Hi John.
thank you for the example org file.
I made two kinds of changes, one in the org-latex-classes definition and
one in the .org-file itself:
I changed the class definition for org-latex-classes to

"\\documentclass[12pt]{exam}

I've been using Philip Hirschhorn's exam documentclass

produce the pdf.
