[SOLVED] Re: Re: Re: How do I mount mmc card so that a non-root user has write access?

Yes!  This worked. I think LXDE was acting appropriately given that the
mmc card was formated ext3 instead of vfat.  The answer was simple, as
root: chmod 775 /media/<blah> followed by chown :plugdev /media/<blah>
This allows any use that is in the plugdev group write access to the
card.

The permissions to the /media/<blah> directory persist across inserting
and removing the device.  Thanks for the help.
