And I couldn't agree more with you about stuff we design today probably not working tomorrow....but y'know, thankfully seperating content and presentation means that the content will probably stay in tact =).

This has been an interesting, if heated, thread. I think a large part of it revolves around being unable to measure people's default font size. The "arrogance" vs. "idealist" portion of the discussion. So I'm building something to measure the default size of things. Anyone know of someone else that has already done this? I'd hate to duplicate effort.
