well, if we don't get the MIME, then it isn't really XHTML... it 
won't validate as such... and given that (i think) that MIME type 
causes IE6/win some issues, that's a concern...

of course, HTML itself *isn't* a discarded standard... we *could* 
still do all of the above in HTML *and* serve it as the correct MIME 
type...

as it is, the articles themselves won't validate when you consider 
none of the <img> elements have a self-terminating slash...

or am i being too picky?

well, i'm gonna... regardless... and i do have version control...

however, i'm moving this weekend, so i won't realistically start 
until monday...

even if someone else does it, i'm still gonna tackle it just to make 
sure i *can* do it, and also because we might benefit from it...

hmmm....
