Answer blocks potential

Answer blocks potential

[David Arnold]

Hans, Taco, et al,

I've looked at the question-answer block suggestion and it has good  
potential for what I want to do. What I need now is a way of  
typesetting the blocks as follows.

1. Question           2. Question
3. Question           4. Question

Then, later in the document, I'll unhide the answer blocks.

Is it worth my while to try to use question-answer blocks in an  
itemized environment? should I pursue that or try a different tack?

no. it can only be used at the outer level

Hans,

OK. Meanwhile, looking to a future fromatting of the exercise set,  
brief solutions, and long solutions, do you think it best that I  
instruct my colleagues to code in question-answer blocks (LongAnswer,  
BriefAnswer)?
