Bleh, I knew someone would say this.  Whenever I hear SGML or any *ML
in which the ML does not stand for Meta-Language, my Buzz-Word alarm goes off.
I'm highly suspicious of SGML, and it's relative worth.  It's got clunky
syntax, and while LaTeX has it's flaws it's a hellalot more powerful.

And if I want to write data in an easily manipulatable form, I use Lisp.
