You would most certainly NOT BE CORRECT.  I've had my own server  
running Apache for years.

I don't think this is something that can be solved with html tags, but  
I will try Brad's suggestions.
Read man calendar about how it uses cpp, and how the calendar.* files  
are formatted.
If I recall, I used this same technique years ago and had a simple,  
elegant way of solving it using some default tool like col, though  
that doesn't seem to work now.
