Also I figured out why I wasn't getting the %%% local variables:
automatically in my LaTeX files -- I've been using TeX and LaTeX for so
long, that rarely/never do I start a "new tex" file -- I always copy
over something with a similar template to what I used and tweak it. So
the magic in auctex that inserts the %%% magic -- which is perhaps newer
than most of  my existing template docs never got a chance.

1+ on making all this work "out of the box" to use a modern term, though
I have never had to take Emacs out of any box as long as I can
remember.
