For completeness, you can "escape" an asterisk in Org using entities, in
this case \ast{}, or \star{}:
"The person wanted to say \ast{}BSD. Now this is bold*"
Unfortunately, for obvious reasons, this will not work
Thank you very much. That was most informative.

Hi Org Mode:
I'm trying to escape an asterisk character, i.e. "*" to use in regular
text. I.e., "The person wanted to say *BSD". And I don't want to use a
verbatim or code block because monospace is not what I need.
I've tried \* to escape the character and it doesn't work. I'm on Org 8.2.5h.
