After HTML/XHTML WG charter wasn't renewed, I wrote a poem in 2009 "XHTML Nevermore". @afroninja and I met via my Los Alamos Nt'L Lab workshops. Talked about XHTML2 a bit. He dared me to tweet it so start at the title for continuity. HTML semantics fail poetry w/o <poem></poem> !

But you know that with HTML5 we will get lots of useful elements all the time, because there will be rapid development and no burden of consensus!! /s
