Well ... leaving out the URI to the .dtd ont he w3c site causes what
everyone refers to as "quirks mode" meaning essentially that when
given the first DTD each browser will interpret the page in its own
"special" way. Hence the desire to use the latter format for the DTD
which encourages the browser to adhere to the w3c standards for the
given document type (in this case html, but sometimes also xhtml).
