Another web crusade I should fight?
Is it acceptable to link to sites that insist on using fixed size 0.05 fonts? C'mon guys, it looks slick and all, but nobody above 45 can read you. Just let go a little bit.

This post is aka "Anal retentives hate presbyopics" for the search engines, very Salon-like. Heck, I had to look up presbyopic in a dictionary, it sounds like the dirty word in my "smart tabloid" headline. (a paper dictionary, dictionary.com lagged, I hate it when the web lets me down.)

Is it anal retentive to document every phrase with a link?

04/30/01 update: you can override fixed size fonts in the accessibility options of IE 5.5. If you have a wheel mouse, you can resize fonts using "Ctrl + wheel" (thanks antenna). BTW, you might want to check out more productivity tips.
