@cocomac awesome! thanks a lot! I adjusted the formatting - I don't like blockquote formatting being used for emphasis/de-emphasis as people are used to it meaning that the text is quoted... also I felt it was a bit distracting and not needed.
If I'm an idiot and that text was actually quoted, or you just really really want it to be formatted like that for some reason (but I would encourage you to use some other formatting option if you want to distinguish those bits of text) then please feel free to re-edit
