There is an interesting article (http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2004/09/15/emreallyem-undoing-htmlcss /) about this from Eric Myer which discusses the removal of default styles using Tantek Celiks undohtml.css (http://tantek.com/log/2004/undohtml.css) file. It made me realise just how much we take for granted from default browser styles.
