Actually, there is a use for ASP that contains no ASP coding: server-side include layout files.
Theoretically, you could see something along the lines of
<!--#include file="header.asp"-->
Body code.
<!--#include file="footer.asp"-->
Which would work fine, have no timestops and allow for quick and easy layout changes. Mind you, the pages could have also been created in .SHTML (assuming the server supports it...I suppose there COULD be a case where it isn't and ASP is, but that's very unlikely.)
I would suggest that the idea of separating layout from content would be the most likely reason ASP was used if no scripting was involved, and that's something plain ol' HTML just won't do.
It won't hurt anything to leave it the way it is, as chrishirst pointed out. If it ain't broke, don't mess with it.
