I, too, think the crowd crazie, for other reasons besides: when I heard 
of this crowd I glanced at the website, and found great effort exerted 
on the meaning of strings that had been considered bad HTML, say text 
between <ol> and <li>, with the webbrowser free to make any 
interpretation of it. Furthermore, I looked for limitless nesting, as 
the deprecated <center> is allowed within <center>, to the webbrowser s 
limits, and found that such limitless nesting is not and never shall be 
part of HTML, right after claims that the element structure allows 
that--but only in style!
Sounds as if one has to use something like MSoft Word to generate it, 
because Word well fakes nesting by means of indenting. Ugh.
