I think all chapters SHOULD start on a right page. However, I think it's a
complete joke to put text on a blank page stating that the page is blank.
We just leave it blank.
Just my two cents.

intentionally left blank." I know their purpose is to even up
the number of pages in a chapter so that the next chapter can
start on the right facing page. (As opposed to the left, but
let's not get into *that* again.)
We've been using them in our manuals, but I'm beginning to see
them as being very wasteful and unnecessary. So what if a
chapter starts on the left! The environmentalist in me has
already removed them from the next version of the manual, but I
was wondering what others are doing?
