Funny you should mention this, because I have been working on a perl
script that converts word.rtf to xml and saves all of the styles. If you
are at all comfortable with using xslt, then converting from xml to LyX
is trivial.

There may be a better way than this. However, I have been working
extremely hard on my script and believe that converting word to another
marked-up language is as easy as it looks. If you find a way to convert
rtf to LyX let me know.
