In real XHTML, served with an XML mime-type, including two dashes in a comment is a fatal error; in HTML, it's a feature inherited from SGML that every pair of two dashes starts and stops a comment, so "<!-- THIS IS A --" is a comment, "TEST " is misplaced text, and "--" starts another comment which doesn't end until the end of the document.
