title: markdown - can I have underscores w/o escaping them and not have markdown italics?
body: <p>I want to have text that has underscores in it.</p>
  
  <p>It's not code and so I don't want to use code format.</p>
  
  <p>I want to stop markdown treating it as an instruction to <em>italicize</em> it.</p>
  
  <p>I can escape _each_underscore (see!) with <code>\</code> but I have a total of 20 and that looks ugly in the source, hard to maintain and not very DRY.</p>
  
  <p>Any other options?</p>
