I would fall over backwards if my clients ever said anything as
sophisticated as this. I mean it. It is just not on the radar for
most people, I am talking intelligent people here too. I would
not be surprised if most clients have to a be persuaded by their
website makers to have such thoughts... especially if they were
lucky enough to have one like you to educate them. Methinks the
push for standards is not driven by the market (proof: look at
the state of it!), but by the trail blazers at alt.html and the
like. I can tell you, Els, I am swelling with pride here to know
this brave little band... oops I just fell off my chair, swelled
too much to the right...
