<P>
If you are quoting more than a few lines from a document, use a
BLOCKQUOTE to indicate this. Block quotations are often rendered with indented
margins, and possibly in italics, although a rendering with the standard
quotation symbol for E-mail, "&gt; ", is of course also possible.

  <H2>Notes:</H2>
<UL>

<LI>If you quote from someone else's work, don't forget to include a
credit and/or copyright notice.
<LI>Do not use BLOCKQUOTE simply to create indented text. This is not
the required rendering, so you will not achieve the effect you want
on all browsers. It will also confuse page indexers and summarizers.
