I would have liked the multi-index notation, too, had you shown us…

If you allow your commentors to embed images, we can make latex work.

There is an alternative, actually. If you enable ASCIIMathML… you would need to tweak your HTML code to embed a particular javascript code. And that is it! Anyone who types Latex inside of dollar signs will get a regular unicode based pretty math expression.

Jack, unfortunately the blogging software doesn't support LaTeX notation, but here's an example of the notation you're talking about. These notes on hypergeometric functions being with defining rising and falling factorial powers.

Like that multi-index notation.

Another useful notation from Concrete Mathematics:
the falling factorial.
I’d show an example, but I’m not sure if I can type LaTeX or fancy HTML here.
