Meh. Maybe if that wise man is Eliezer Yudkowsky. But then, calling Eliezer Yudkowsky a "wise man" is like calling the Sahara Desert a "litterbox".
Or Chuck Norris a "tough guy".
ETA: Grr! I can't put underscores in people's names anymore without adding italics!
Is it perhaps time for another round of Eliezer Yudkowsky Facts?
Just backslash escape them - type it like this: Eliezer\_Yudkowsky
ETA: this is an amusing example of "do as I say, not as I do". What I actually typed looked like this: Eliezer\\\_Yudkowsky
I think you misunderstand the problem. I know I can override the formatting. It's just that if I did so, it would invalidate my claim that I have software that lets me call up forum screen names with hotkeys, and replaces the spaces with underscores in forums that allow spaces in names.
In other words, people would know I was needlessly typing out their whole screen name and adding underscores, and it wasn't just some glitchy software.
