Thanks for your helpful advice! Your org-bibtex setup in particular
looks like exactly what I need. (Your dissertation proposal looks very
interesting, too!)
I think what I will do is stick with Org for now, and try to be smarter
about a few things (like the #+LABEL command...which I must have read
about at some point but forgotten) so that, if I ever need to drop down
to straight LaTeX, it will be easy to make the switch. You've given me
a helpful example to follow.
Best,
Richard
