Really?

Somehow, I can't understand how you manage to get “Failed” from
“Congratulations! Valid CSS! This document validates as CSS! ”.

Really?

I don’t know what you used to do the validation on these, but this site:
http://webxact.watchfire.com/
says that I only fail level AAA, and by only one checkpoint which I
can’t do anything about because of the way that the feedback form must
be processed by the server-side code. My hands are tied. If you really
wanna be a neurotic bitch about it, I’ll change the text to AA.
And as for Section 508, the same site clocks me in at having (once
again!) only one (1) error, which is a dubious issue, since I provide
exactly what they demand (the link to the plugin is INSIDE the <object>
tag; users that don’t have flash should see the link... this was a check
that I was asking about. As well, there is a static image that should
also be seen if the user doesn’t have flash).

I just did. Who's looking silly now?

Point taken. But my main thrust of support is for TTS readers. Not ppl
with images turned off or CSS disabled.

Mea Culpa. That, at least, can be “fixed”, and it has been.
