1. Multi-line comments begin with two periods ###..:

###.. ////////////////////////////
// This multi-line comment
// will keep going and going

// even if you put blank lines in.
//////////////////////////////////

The comment will only end when it reaches a paragraph p. marker.

2. HTML comments are respected also:

Here is some text with a <!-- Commented out[1] --> block.

<!-- Here is a single <span>line</span> comment block -->

<!-- Here is a whole
multiline
<span>HTML</span>
Comment
-->

Normal text continues here.
