Thanks for the heads up guys. I know how to use blockquote, that's not an issue, but I'm wondering if using cite would be worth it.
I won't be storing the URL from the original page. If I did citing the orig. page that could get me into a while lot of trouble if I am mirroring/scraping/*stealing* quotes from certain sites. Hence why I do not want to cite the original site. Any advances on the problem? If I could leave the cite out, without it causing an issue then I would. I was going to use a <p>, but an uncited blockquote would be more semantic than a <p> I felt.
