I'm just wondering what situation you would need to return and not  
echo? The template tags are designed to function within 'the loop' and  
just spit out the right information. Usually you'd structure your HTML  
around this, and then call the template tags in the places where you  
want to render the profile data.

You might want to directly access the profile data object if you want  
to get hold of data instead of rendering it straight to the page. What  
do others think?
