   Wow. Those statements are so all over the place, I don't even know where to   
   begin. But I guess I'll start with: HTML is not a character encoding scheme,   
   it's a markup language. HTML does include a character (entity) encoding   
   scheme, but HTML entity encodings are not represented as a sequence of "bits",   
   but rather as a sequence of characters and those charaters are usually encoded   
   in, you guessed it, UTF-8.
