 * Hi,
 * I’d like to know how I should handle comments with broken or incomplete HTML 
   so that they don’t rend my pages.
 * `e.g. <b`
 * I prefer to keep HTML enabled for my readers, and an automatic solution would
   be best. I suspect there may be a built in feature or plugin that handles this,
   but for the life of me can’t find anything out there of relevance to the subject
   matter.
 * Thanks
