 * Seems like this should be simple, but I can’t get a line on it anywhere.
 * Why can’t I use include or php include to invoke a file inside the posts?
 * Thanks

 * Still screwing around with this.
 * I don’t get it. The post is a php document, right? Why can’t I add an include
   to bring something in?
