Simple. If you don't like what you see, and you like a plain look, just tell
your browser that you want it plainer. TAKE CONTROL.

1. Use Firefox
2. Select View / Page Style / No Style from the menubar.

While this is checked you need never see another fancy stylesheet-ed page.

If this is *too* plain for your liking, just create a user stylesheet in
Firefox...

You see? Lots of options. Take control of your browser if you don't like
what you see, thus freeing the rest of us to get on with the job of
satisfying our clients, and the vast majority of users :p
