Comment (by inigo):

 thx Jb Audras for your reply

 I agree that em and strong are more semantic and that's probably why they
 are used instead of <i> and <b>
 Personally I do agree with that.
 Hassle is that we have to conform to standards by bureau's that monitor
 our sites.
 And this is such issue.
 Maybe we can argue with their criteria.
 I will give that a shot.

 regards Inigo
