Looks like the feeds are messed up. That’s the data NewsBlur’s getting.
Excellent! Of course NewsBlur is getting it! 
What I am asking is to find that very trap in XML parsing, where the crap becomes visible.
And filter it! (oh please, please, be nice and filter it, i beg you
Look, all the livejournal crap is contained between theese tags (i hope getsatisfaction don’t mess it):
<!-- TAGS MESSY TAGS -->
I believe that the cause is that stupid livejournal’s html comment tag
Here goes a full feed item as an example (i bet getsatisfaction can deal with it):

So what i am asking, is to remove the code between theese tags when you are parsing the livejournal feeds.
I hope that one little condition and one little regular expression can help.
Please.
Thank you in advance. :)Newsblur is the only RSS reader I know that has problems with Livejournal. Even if LJ provides incorrect RSS, can Newsblur adapt?
Thanks.
