&lt;p&gt;...no more formal a place is there..&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I wonder why &amp;quot;is there&amp;quot; instead of &amp;quot;there is&amp;quot;? Would it be incorrect to write &amp;quot;there is&amp;quot;?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;thanks&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
