A2.2 AKA: Personal Vendetta
I hate the way microformats are going through that whole adolescence
phase and bringing back major disease like acute divitus and severe
spanitis, My personal take on this would be something the likes of:
<address>
<dl class="adr">
<dt class="work">Street Address</dt>
<dd class="street-address">111 some street</dd>
<dd class="extended-address">suite 101</dd>
<dt>City</dt>
<dd class="locality">Cooltown</dd>
<dd class="locality">Suburbia</dd>
<dt>Postal Code</dt>
<dd class="postal-code">H0H 0H0</dd>
<dt>Region</dt>
<dd class="region">OG</dd>
<dt>Country</dt>
<dd class="country-name">Canada</dd>
</dl>
<dl class="tel">
<dt class="type" title="fax">Fax:</dt>
<dd class="value">+1-111-111-1111</dd>
<dt class="type" title="work">Work:</dt>
<dd class="value">+2-222-222-2222</dd>
</dl>
</address>
we have markup language people... dont be affraid to use it!
be afraid to use it incorrectly however, as the above use of
<address> does.
Duely noted, thanks!

http://microformats.org/wiki/hcard-faq#Why_is_adr_property_necessary
homework assignment for incorrectly suggesting use of the <address>
element
and emotionally so ("hate the way microformats are going through
that whole
adolescence"):
I will do my studies! But my emotional beef is more about seeing divs
pop-up like it's a division party, and that sorta gets me roughed
up... But again, I'm no authority on the subject.... you are. Seeing
as you're someone I truly hold in hight regard, it would be great to
know your thoughts on my usage of the definition lists for marking up
a label => value set of data such as the adr and/or offer a cure for
divitus and spanitis.
Please (re)read the HTML 4.01 specification from beginning to end.
Beginning to end? Harsh a bit no? Ok... Will do!
http://w3.org/TR/html401
Then follow-up with reading POSH resources:
http://microformats.org/wiki/posh
I read that, I find the word "semantic" ambiguous in some contexts,
just as "tabular data" may be ambiguous to some.
Thanks,
No, I thank YOU!
