Anthony,
Do not get discouraged. Designing semantically correct, accessible,
and valid sites is not easy. Transitioning to standards compliant
design is a long frustrating road, but it is well worth the pain.
There are many that can forget the journey that we all traveled to get
where we are

The real trick is to understand what the specification means and why it
says what it says. There has always been disputes about the validity of
an automated tester saying 'Yes this site is compliant'. You can code a
terrible page that will pass an automated test. It is important to code

If you set the Body font size to 100.01% you can avoid the scaling
issue in IE and some older versions of Opera, and be able to use font
sizes less than 1em.

I am considering taking the User Centered Design seminars via Human
Factors International in Chicago Illinois when it comes around here in
September. Work will pay for it, so cost is not an issue.
I am wondering if any of you have taken their seminars or know
anything about them.
I think that the fix is 100.01% on the html element and the 1em (or what ever height) on body element.
This prevents scaling issues in older versions of Opera and in Internet Explorer.

I do not know if it desprecated but if you want to use it you can add
the following to your CSS declarations:
body { margin-top; 200px; }
however you may want to go with
body { margin-top: 12em; }
so it scales with fluid designs (or use percentages).
