# [various stuff about HTML to not include in a printed FAQ]
#
# <a href="http://some.url.com"><http://some.url.com></a>
#
# This is silly and redundant. You shouldn't do this in an online doc,
# let alone a printed one.

That was my point.

# <HR>
# <SMALL>
# <ADDRESS>
# fred@somewhere.com
# </ADDRESS>
# </SMALL>
#
# I don't understand. If this were in the source (and if SMALL were
# actually an HTML tag) then the printed copy wouldn't show any of the
# tags anyway. It would show 'fred@somewhere.com' visually represented
# in some appropriate manner for addresses (not email addresses, but
# hey).
#
# What's the problem with that? Other than correcting the HTML, that is.

I have seen this in the text of an FAQ, not the HTML source (where it
should be).
