The example above is not valid hCard.  Types are not classes, so  
that's likely only working because it's ignoring the class="work"  
completely.  I think what Mike was asking is if the following works:

<div class="tel"><span class="type">work</span>: <span  
class="value">1-800-670-5861</span></div>

Obviously that's not what you want to publish, but if that works and  
the <abbr> doesn't then we've narrowed the problem down to Tails  
failing to recognize <abbr> titles as content.  Also, do you have a  
live URL of your first (correct) attempt we could use to test with  
other tools?

P.S. Please don't top-post; it's hard to read.
