Occasionally, someone posts a comment with some HTML, like an <i> tag to start italics, and then forgets to close it with a </i>. That used to make every subsequent comment also italicized until someone posted a comment ending the italics.

I’ve added code to automatically clean up HTML in comments. This will automatically detect, and fix, unclosed tags and other HTML errors. It should otherwise leave your comment unchanged, though it’s possible it might make other changes. If you experience anything weird, post a comment or email info@ggwash.org.
