[jdom-interest] Strange Element.addContent(index,Content) problem

[Bradley S. Huffman]

Ah hah! Mixed content, it just happens to be whitespace :-)
All the newlines and whitespace between element tags is a Text node.  So the
first Description element would have a index of 3, not 1, in the full content
list (there's a Text node consisting of whitespace before and one after
the Communication tag).
