Surely you jest.

Last time I looked, it was quite simply _not_ HTML. It was a markup language
that happens to display in Internet Explorer, but which flouted the very
basics of the W3C HTML specification. If you save a Word document as "HTML",
do not think you get a cross-platform document. You get something which
non-Microsoft browsers might very well, and justifiably, choke on.
