(e)Xpressive Markup Language?

The Inappropriate Posting Scenario  (link broken)

You are in a large lecture hall full of people in your profession. Included in the audience are students, educators, professionals. You cannot make out their faces, but they could reasonably include your employers or potential employers, your coworkers, and the ever-present violently obsessive technical writing groupies. Most of the audience members sit quietly as one member at a time gets up, walks to the podium, and shares information or advice or asks questions. Some of it is rich and detailed, some cursory but helpful, some trivial but relevant in a roundabout way. Somewhere in this stream of information, someone expresses an opinion or gives a piece of advice that you feel obligated to respond to.
