Intentionally top posting: Thanks to all who replied. I think Chris hit the nail on the head (in many ways) -- now I have to read the link he sent and figure out what to change in my browser settings to see the rendered "math".
In the meantime, the interactive renderer on http://asciimath.org/#syntax seems helpful -- I don't if it will render all the markup I encounter on Quora, but until I get Firefox settings straightened out, I'll be trying the renderer. Iirc, I keep Java and Javascript disabled (and also use NoScript), I'll have to see what I have to change, ideally only for Quora (or other pages with the same markup).
