Joe Clark’s Answers — In Valid XHTML

“We sent 10 of your questions to usability guy Joe Clark, and he took it upon himself to go a bit beyond simply answering them. In his reply he said, ‘Answers attached in a valid XHTML file. I would suggest at least retaining the id attributes. I copy-edited all the questions, but the words are all the same; they are now merely spelled and capitalized correctly. I think all the links work.’ Whatever. We left Joe’s formatting intact. It’s a little different from our usual style, but variety is the spice of Slashdot.”
