To be fair, they are a LOT better now than they were, I think? Last time I
looked, they were still made out of nested tables and assorted nastiness,
but they rendered far better than the early FrontPage stuff did - and
they've fixed some of the mis-nesting of tags, I think...

And the demoronizer, to fix all those stupid Office "smart" quotes which
show as ?s in proper browsers - and in e-mail sent from MS clients...
(Does HTML-tidy fix that? I've only run it on the Apache project pages so
