This is a really (*really*) trivial problem, but one that I've seen many
times, is annoying, and I wonder if anyone knows an easy fix.

I'll get these long lines (not text just some graphical artifact) off
the left of comments. See image attached.

The line goes away if:
  * Change to text mode
  * Change to nxml-mode
  * Or if I "hunt-and-peck" to remove a character:

  The "/" changed to "x" fixes it here:
#  _                   _
# | |__   _____      _| |_ ___     __ _  ___ _ __   _____   ____ _
# |  _ \ / _ \ \ /\ / / __/ _ \   / _` |/ _ \ '_ \ / _ \ \ / / _`
|________
# | | | | (_) \ V  V /| || (_) | | (_| |  __/ | | |  __/\ V / (_| |
# |_| |_|\___/ \_/\_/  \__\___/   \__, |\___|_| |_|\___| \_/ \__,_|
#                                 |___/

#                                 |___/


  The "_" changed to "x" fixes it here:
#                      _ _
#   __ _ _ __  _   _  | (_)_ __  _   ___  __
#  / _` | '_ \| | | | | | | '_ \| | | \ \/ /
# | (_| | | | | |_| | | | | | | | |_| |>  <________________
#  \__, |_| |_|\__,_| |_|_|_| |_|\__,_/_/\_\
#  |___/
#                      _ _
#   __ _ _ __  _   _  | (_)_ __  _   ___  __
#  / _` | '_ \| | | | | | | '_ \| | | \ \/ /
# | (x| | | | | |_| | | | | | | | |_| |>  <
#  \__, |_| |_|\__,_| |_|_|_| |_|\__,_/_/\_\

Note - this happens in emacs22 in emacsw32 and in emacs22 over putty.


Thanks again for the great org-mode! :)
