I'm not sure if you're a troll or just clueless.

If you happen to like monstrosities like frames, go ahead and use them
to cripple the useability and accessibility of your sites.  Why not
disconnect the elevators and remove the wheelchair ramps from your
office building, too.  Only an ivory tower non-architect type would want
to use such things, right?

Don't sling mud at people who advocate a more open, more inclusive Web
unless you've got something constructive to bring to the table.

BTW, I'm (1) not a member or employee of W3C and (2) have been doing Web
design for almost seven years, professionally for about more than half
that.
