Hmm. Makes a little more sense now.

The trouble is that they will still ask how the "elite" people get their
special powers to do formatting, and whine when their malformed efforts
don't work. That's what I meant by drowning out the ones who can learn.
But regardless, please don't mix meta types. Either use positional notation,
or tags, but don't have both. The idea of a tag language with COBOL style
comments is not a happy one in my mind.
I'm still in favour of a subset of the basic HTML tags. They're easy to
parse, easy to restrict, and <B>easy to learn</B>. Oh, and easy to read.
