I agree with this that there should be only on H1 per page, but the HTML
Gods will not strike you dead if you using more than one (but if you do
it should make logical sense) What I object to is the use of H# to
"style" with. In other words using H# where the text is not a heading
but where the author merely wants bigger bolder text!
