Hi,

What I want is to not use both note and tip because I contend the user
cannot use any difference between the two. So, I want one note, or tip, or
hint tag.

What I need is a real study to back up my assertion, and with MS and others
using both notes and tips, it looks like I am sol.

Cheers,

Sean
