But I'd say that his is more semantic, because you're reusing the
semantics of http://microformats.org/wiki/adr.
Why not:
<p>
Unbelievable. Yesterday's high temperature in
<span class="adr locality">Salem</span>
it was 57 degrees out.
</p>
Because locality is a subproperty of adr. They can't be on the same
element.
i.e.
<span class="locality">Any Town</span>, <abbr class="region"
title="California">CA</abbr>
I don't think there's been any discussion of this, but I've seen
examples of people doing precisely this. So, you're not alone here.
If you were to do this (I'm not saying it's a good or bad idea)
wouldn't you do it the other way, with the machine readable data
inside the title?
<abbr class="region" title="CA">California</a>,
<abbr class="country" title="US">U.S.A.</abbr>
Indeed, California isn't really an abbreviation for 'CA,' so using it
that way doesn't really make sense. However, notice in http://
microformats.org/wiki/hcard-profile, that there isn't actually a
country property, but a 'country-name' property, which means that it
should be more like:
<abbr class="country-name" title="United States of America">U.S.A.</
