Why do you say
"I will not use &"?
It's the right way. It's the only way. If you "will not use &" you
will be writing in a syntax which looks a lot like XML, but ISN'T XML.
OK - that's not quite true. You could use CDATA sections instead, but
the net effect is the same - you are escaping the & character (and some
other special characters, like < and >)
