It could be further argued that learning about HTML by viewing source is like
learning to write well by reading good books. It is not the content that is of
interest when you view source (usually the content is better present when
viewed through a browser), rather the structure and format.
Further, the things you are learning about, html tags, fonts, frames, etc. are
public domain to begin with.
