Interesting e-mail exchange: HTML vs XHTML

It’s not really a wrestling match, but it is something of a face-off:

Dear Mr Noble:

I am writing a research paper on the difference between HTML and XHTML along with the advantages and disadvantages of the two. I am asking for your opinion because I have learned quite a bit about the languages reading your book HTML, XHTML & CSS for Dummies. From your bio in the book it seems you have a lot of experience and the book itself only proves that. So I was wondering, what is your opinion on HTML vs XHTML? Which is most efficient? Which is, in your opinion, the “best” and why?
