Gentlemen:
For the record, I combined Carsten and Nick's suggestion, so here is
what I now have in my init file, and it works:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(eval-after-load 'org
'(progn
(add-to-list 'org-structure-template-alist
'("m" "#+begin_src emacs-lisp\n?\n#+end_src" ""))
(add-to-list 'org-structure-template-alist
'("j"
"#+begin_quote\n||Dr|Cr|\n|-\n|?|$||\n|||$|\n#+end_quote"
""))))
#+end_src
Carsten, I appreciate the explanation for why my quoting didn't work. I
will now be adding many more of these Easy Templates to my init file,
they are a great shortcut.
Regards,
