[olug] LaTeX rocks!

I wish I could have seen Brian's presentation, but had some family 
things...

It is certainly interesting!  We are using it at UNMC for one of our 
projects.  But I'm still on the learning path.  I have been using Miktex 
on windows,but things aren't lining up under LINUX.

I'm trying to use fancyhdr to make headers and footers, so I'm wondering 
if there is a way to turn off the old footer to get rid of the page 
numbers and apply the \cfoot command to add more stuff to the footer?

I only use the Web2C distribution.  It is much better than miktex,
mostly because it does not require registry settings.  It can be
installed just by dumping the files on your hard disk, and editing the
PATH.
