Realistically, css is about as optional as the paint on a car. You don't
need it, the car will work, but... Anybody who turns css off is a nitwit.
Semantics, on the other hand, are particularly valuable to non-visual html
applications but not especially critical to visual rendering. Yeah, I know
all about "tag soup", but going overboard in the other direction is at
least as annoying and only dubiously productive. That other newsgroup
about html, ciwah, invariably puts me to sleep whenever I amble 'round
there looking for some, uh, "excitement".
