The example everyone is getting excited about isn't actually the right
site... the first email Mario sent had an incorrect URL.

The amended version (see subject: "[WSG] HomePage Review: Corrected
URL") lists 
http://www.webnetdesignstudios.com/index1.htm as the correct address.

A quick recap of (this aspect of) the thread follows.

This page displays the testimonial in the form:

<p><img src="Images/Icons/comment.gif" width="16" height="16"
alt="Client Testimonial" /><strong>Joe Coyle,</strong> President</p>

With the testimonial itself in the proceeding paragraph.

I suggested that use of <strong> was inappropriate, as you don't really
emphasis the name, it's purely for the visual differentiation of the
name and title (so I understand it, anyway).

<p class="testimonialname"><span>Joe Coyle,</span> President</p> and add
the rule
.testimonialname span {font-weight:bold}

Would be, in my thinking, a more semantic alternative (that is, a
semantically neutral alternative with no presentational markup).

Argument about overkill and pedanticism followed. ;-)
