Charles,

thanks for the reply

You don't have to use the whole hCard.  Some Microformats have been
extracted from this.

the geo spec says

"If the publisher knows and is publishing the name of the location in addition to its geo lat/long, then the publisher MUST use hCard instead of just geo to publish the name and geo lat/long of the location."

So I'm trying to determine when a named location must use hcard (such as when those locations have a name but no address, but more generally, when the geop and or adr aren't actually "contact information" - for example, the location of the eiffel tower in a guidebook (for which of course, the adr certainly works) )

There's "adr" -- http://microformats.org/wiki/adr -- for just
specifying addresses.  And there's "geo" --
http://microformats.org/wiki/geo -- for just specifying geo info.

thanks again

john
