i've never used smarty* but i think i understand how it works. so my
question is this...
would it not be better to place that logic in your php code instead of
your template?
my thinking is this: if {bio} contains anything, it will print to the
page. if it doesn't contain anything, nothing will be printed. so
there's no need to check the value of $level within the template since
{bio} will simply contain something, or it will not.
i'm purely looking to understand this "smarty" thing a little better. :)

* i did try it once or twice in the past, with little things but didn't
quite grasp it.
