My goodness there are a lot of errors, Charlie. And they are indeed errors! 
Fortunately they can easily be corrected by substituting W3C standards

You cannot ethically do that -- your pages must reflect that very satisfying 
"Congratulations -- no errors found!" message after you run them through the 
Validator in order to display that icon.

There are so many benefits to be derived from making your pages standards 
compliant -- I have highlighted some on the web pages of my reference site 
(below).
