OK.

I'll jump in

Having non W3C compliant code will harm your site - Myth.
Having html errors will harm your site - True.

One is standards... no reason to suddently start penalising odler sites with great content just becuase they didn't update their code.

The other may prevent a spider actually being able to crawl your pages properly.

Sorts of things i mean is having two <heads>s accidentally, deleting a closing </html> etc
