Yup! The RSS 0.92 in these feeds just does not seem very structured.
I am not sure how I want to handle these in Headline Viewer. I don't
want to parse HTML.

Some of the entries also underscore the divergence in the RSS community
from the 0.9x end. Take a look at this for instance:
http://www.ourfavoritesongs.com/users/dave@userland.com/rss/rss.xml
Here we have an 0.92 feed where the items have no <title> and no <link>.
This is of course valid 0.92 as both fields became optional in this
version. 

Many aggregators written to 0.90/1 would have problems displaying this
at all, at all.
