bibs in general

okay, there are a few things you need to know about this section:

1. i copied this directly from the packet from mrs. gregorio, so it should be right....the screwed up numbers were in the packet nd i didn't wanna mess with it, so that's why in one part there's two #6's.

2. html coding doesn't recognize two spaces, it's always one. so don't trust the examples; it'll look like there's only supposed to be one space, but read the directions. if it says two, put two dangit.

3. the way our picky teachers like it is all to be double spaced. do NOT push return twice after each entry...that's wrong. everything should be an equal amount of space from each other, even though it looks bad.

4. if you go onto a second line, indent it...i couldn't make this thing indent, but you should.

well, i hope y'all find this helpful!!
