Cool.

I think I was not very clear on the easiest way for you to contribute. 
Please do not edit the actual HTML code, the HTML code is auto-generated 
from the original XML.

Just copy the plain text from the web page into a text editor and work 
on that.  Below is an example of what I mean.

Original text:
A central issue with depreciation is to determine how you will estimate 
the future value of the asset. Compared to the often uncertain estimates 
one has to do where appreciation of assets is concerned, we are on 
somewhat firmer ground here. Using sources listed below should make it 
fairly straight forward to estimate the future value of your 
depreciating assets.

Blah, blah blah central issue with depreciation is to determine how you

Thanks again!
