Standards. So take the bites with a grain of salt, find the truth in what is being said, learn from it, and carry on.
Validating is a great start. Semantics can be a tricky area to learn. Maybe someone could propose a more
semantically appropriate example to what was posted? Patrick, care to take a swing at it? =)

I cannot speak for Patrick, but what I think that he is shaking his head at is the class names, the amount of class names, and markup that lacks semantic value. I realize that the classnames are used purely for example here, but it leads us on sort of a painful ride when it is seen.
