Eww, yuck. I'm definitely not feeling the love from that file. I don't think we really *want* to support php4 right, since the core no longer supports it?<div><div></div><div><div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

I'm not saying there aren't better options, you just asked what could it be used for. :P I actually have a custom theme that I use a Snoopy class w/ a plugin to pull multisite comments into the root blog theme ...<div>
