There is the problem stated exactly, it's a shame that no one knows that
*no* look is *required*. It is content, navigability (word?) and
compatibility that *is required*, but management and designers get
together and it's the programmer that has to find a way to comply, most
often at the sacrifice of many of the above requirements.

I hope so, and I hope others I've run into lately do as well. Back when I
was learning HTML those teaching like Laura Lemay stressed the importance
of content over appearance. The design entered in with navigation.
Too bad people get lost. I miss gopher.
