Richard,
the link to your web site went to a bad page (at least on my system)

Last August when Wade presented on CSS at our UPHPU meeting, I took
notes and posted them to my blog[1]. For whatever reason now, someone
found them and included them in a list of "70 expert ideas for CSS
coding"[2]. (Thanks Wade!)
One of Wade's ideas, which really resonated with me as efficient and
clever, was to create a "library" of CSS classes that you regularly
use. For example:
.float_left
{
float:left;
}
Then you can easily write <div class="float_left"></div> in your code.
Someone commented on my post today that this actually breaks semantic
markup, which appears to be true. Float_left is a presentational
directive, so should it really be used?
I'm sure Wade probably argued that the convenience of a CSS class
library outweighs the disadvantages of not having perfectly semantic
HTML. I probably just forgot to write it in my notes.
In any case, Wade's presentation and the article that linked to it
today are both quite good for CSS.
