        Ooops. That I did. Sorry.

        The truth is that somewhere between my import of all data from
the database, its grooming by 'tidy -xml' and my editing the
encoding seems to have gone to hell. I reckon I will have to correct
this most ridiculous situation. Bleh. :P

        As a matter of fact, no. Since I find XSL programming as 
pleasant as a pancreas operation performed with live hamsters
as sole surgical tools, I prefer to stick to more attractive
alternatives. Like XPathScript, that comes with the way cool 
AxKit module.  Which is, oh the joy of it, a Perl answer to XSL.

        If you want to send me the XSL sheets, I'll gladly 
put'em there. :)
