nope.. METAs are only meaningful in the HEAD.
the reason there are even HEAD and BODY sections at all is that HTTP allows
two different ways to query a page. GET returns the whole thing, but HEAD
only returns the corresponding section.
the original idea was that users would be able to get a preview of the page
without actually having to load it and see what it contained. then the
conceptual model of the web shifted from a text-based model to a graphical
model, and most of the content-linking features got shoved onto the back
shelf.
if you have to put you information in the BODY of a page, i'd say forget
the METAs and just use comments.
