[WSG] W3C Validation Question

I just ran the following page through the W3C validator. http://www-odi.nhtsa.dot.gov/ewr/instances.cfm and the only thing it didn't like was the way I displayed the metatags. I got 4 errors. These are metatags that have been there long before I came and integrated them into the new style sheet.

Yes - it's a Skype feature to make numbers easily clickable to use Skype for calling. I believe it can be turned off in Tools Options somewhere. http://support.skype.com/index.php?_a=knowledgebase http://support.skype.com/index.php?_a=knowledgebase_j=questiondetails_i=8 06
