These tag use examples were not displaying correctly on my screen:

big — A font-style tag, used to format text within a document. The big tag will format text as larger than the base font.

The sample big text appears no larger than the rest of the text.

blockquote — A font-style tag, used to format text within a document. The blockquote tag defines a long quotation. The browser will insert white space before and after a blockquote element. It also inserts margins for the blockquote element.

The sample blockquoted text doesn't have any more of a margin than the rest of the text. No space appears before the blockquote, and two spaces are after it.

H3 through H6 - These heading sizes look exactly the same - just bolded text.

q — A tag used to format text within a document. The q tag defines a short quotation. The browser will automatically insert quotation marks around text marked with q.

The sample text does not have quotation marks on my screen.

small — A font-style tag, used to format text within a document. The small tag will format text as smaller than the default text.

The sample text does not appear small.

"sub — A font-style tag, used to format text within a document. The sub tag defines subscript text. Subscript text appears half a character below the baseline.
sup — A font-style tag, used to format text within a document. The sup tag defines superscript text. Superscript text appears half a character above the baseline."

The sample text appeared no different from the other text.
