     Good eyes, Bob. This was here more for my benefit than anything
else; I'm using an HTML editor to build the page (Mozilla 4.06) and I
wouldn't see the tag text. Putting the section name in brackets was just
a shortcut for me, but I've removed them (I know the contents far better
now, so no prob).

[Multimedia]
> Suggest deleting the three bracketed comments. The first two refer
