It's Gruber's markdown with some changes. Which is also dumb.

Messing with syntax is beneath you. I know you like things to be a certain way, but the way you do stuff doesn't work.

- your quotes methodology borks with a space in it

- your italics/bold borks when mixed with other markdown

- you can't do tables

- you can't do superscript

- you can't do hover text

- inline images are great, but they read poorly and are immune to gifs

Don't "do some work" adopt something you don't have to rethink every time I gripe. ;-)
