Stuart mentioned that his question re: FIG stemmed from something he read
in a book on HTML.
<Rant>
When are publishers going to stop putting out books on HTML 3.0?!? It's
amazing, 3.0 went belly-up a *year* ago, and yet I keep seeing *new* books
on it! I saw one from The Waite Group last night, for crying out loud! So
people who don't know its a corpse go and buy these bound volumes of
wastepaper...

Sorry, I had to get that out of my system. Guess my nerves are still a
bit on edge from Hurricane Fran. :-P
