Peter's latest idea: uppercase for points, lowercase for vectors.

So I think the following works:

  • Points: uppercase bold non-italic
  • Vectors: lowercase bold non-italic
  • Other variables, including scalars, are italicized
  • No vector barbs used anywhere

I noticed some inconsistencies in points/vector/etc. in my pass, I'll continue to mark them up in #333, but should I hold add off adding a commit with those changes?

Probably merge PR #483 into your changes.
