Description
If you try to convert following texts:
text1 = "aaa bbb<ccc ddd"
text2 = "aaa bbb< ccc ddd"
the results are not consistent
<p>aaa bbb<ccc ddd</p>
<p>aaa bbb< ccc ddd</p>
and results in bad escaping of the less-then symbol in text1.

Start by reproducing the conversion with the two text examples in the issue and trace how markdown2 handles the less-than symbol in each case. Done means both inputs escape the symbol consistently in the generated paragraph output.
