See, there's the conundrum. Normally, yes, I would likely disagree, but
since I _have_ to disagree, I just can't agree with that, either. Even
agreeing to disagree leaves a sour taste in my mouth so I think I'll just
go off and play Australian.

It depends on how pedantic you are. But a word to the wise: many people
seem to "adapt" (-to or "adopt") much of the w3c's labyrinthine advices
apparently because they are official and/or sound so neat, so my guess
would be "Yeah, the 'Day of the Nerds' is upon us."
