a '#' at the beginning of my text lines.

[david@adboyd.com (J. David Boyd)]

I like to put notes in my TODO items, like

*** TODO yadda yadda yadda 
    [CLOCK thing]

    The purpose of this note is to 
    figure out what I should do with
    the whatever, whenever.


However, now I am getting:

*** TODO yadda yadda yadda 
    [CLOCK thing]

    The purpose of this note is to 
    #figure out what I should do with
    #the whatever, whenever.



Where did the '#' characters come from, and how do I turn them off?

Dave
