Default Please include Bluebook legal citation style in Word 2007

If it's not in there now, I would not expect it in the final version.
While the citation system in 2007 is neat, I don't consider it
sufficient for any graduate student involved in research. I would
suggest to look into dedicated citation/bibliography managers, e.g.
EndNote. The best thing you can do is take a look at your university
library's website or talk to a librarian. Many universities provide such
programs for students, but this is often not widely known.

Law students and other legal writers use citations very often. While the
Word 2007 beta includes many different citation styles, Bluebook or ALWD
citations styles (the two most common and most important legal citation
styles) have not been included. Please include them in the final release.
Tens of thousands of law students will thank you for making their lives
easier!
