Just for the record, I was mistaken, and confused the page with what I was actually looking for: http://www.w3schools.com/ which I inevitably type in as w3schools.org to begin with. Having said that, the typeface used on this (http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/) and other pages (as it shows in Safari on my Mac anyway) is particularly difficult to read. I remember even being told in class that sans serif is better for the screen than, say, Garamond, though Georgia works well. However, it looks like some improvements have been made with regard to typographic hierarchy and line spacing. Still, without adjusting the browser window, the line length is quite long which is not optimal for reading. This page (http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/ learning) uses a narrower column. I regret having used the word "outrageous" and in general taking on an unnecessarily heated tone in my previous message, however, I still think the http://www.w3.org/WAI/ page could be improved by a better use of hierarchy and meaningful titles. Clutter, to me, tends to be overwhelming whether it's on a website or my kitchen counter.
