Verrry interesting ...

I just tried it on the central section of a paper I prepared for a 
conference in Santa Barbara.  The paper is on writing HTML that is 
accessible with non-graphic browsers, screen readers for blind users, 
etc. Some of the headings are amusing:

<META NAME = "dc.identifier" CONTENT = "(TYPE = URL)
http://www.csun.edu/~mreagan/accprac.html">
<META NAME = "dc.subject" CONTENT = "(TYPE = x-scorpion) (SCHEME = 
DDC) 220.66;
Authorship of Bible , Higher criticism--Bible , Literary 
criticism--sacred books--Bible , Literary
genres--sacred books--Bible , Redaction criticism--sacred books--Bible">
<META NAME = "dc.subject" CONTENT = "(TYPE = x-scorpion) (SCHEME = 
DDC) 652.5; Text
editors , Word processing">
<META NAME = "dc.subject" CONTENT = "(TYPE = x-scorpion) (SCHEME = 
DDC) 652.5; Text
editors , Word processing">
<META NAME = "dc.subject" CONTENT = "(TYPE = x-scorpion) (SCHEME = 
DDC) 686.2252;
Layout--typesetting , Page design--typesetting">
<META NAME = "dc.subject" CONTENT = "(TYPE = x-scorpion) (SCHEME = 
DDC) 796;
Adults--recreation--outdoor , Athletic games , Athletic garments , 
Athletic garments--use ,
Athletic sports , Families--recreation--outdoor , Games--outdoor , 
Games of skill--outdoor ,
Outdoor games , Outdoor sports , Races (Sports) , Racing , Sports">

Layout--typesetting makes sense, Text editors also, but Athletic 
sports, Redaction criticism--sacred books--Bible ???

I wonder what it will do with the third section, headed "A Homily."

BTW the conference is described at http://www.library.ucsb.edu/universe/
