Well, that's kind of what I was asking. If there was a specific tag I
didn't know about that would just strip any html element out of string..
but that's why I mentioned i'd also want to grab the URL out of ahref tag
so i wasn't sure how it'd work since a blanket HTML tag removal would
probably take out the link.

I was leaning towards using a RegEx and just declaring what I want stripped
out.
