Eric,

I load the RTF into OpenOffice (NeoOffice to be correct) into which
I have installed the writer2latex extension and export as Ultraclean.
That I manipulate a little with TexShop removing the \bigskip and the
likes (which I could do with a Perl Script too) and then tex2lyx it.

That works better than rtf2latex.
