Hi Martin,

How does it detach it? You end up with a page that's structured like this:

<hfeed>
 <hentry>
  <entry-title>My Blog post</entry-title>
  <entry-content>Bla bla bla, I have a blog</entry-content>
  <hfeed comments>
    <hentry>
     <entry-content>You are so smart and handsome</entry-content>
    </hentry>
  </hfeed>
 </hentry
</hfeed>

I don't think there's too many blog pages that don't use this implicit
structure. My apologies if I'm missing something....

Regards, etc...
David
