Your users must be more sophisticated than most.

Most users know enough to apply a theme. If we used standard CSS class names, then developers can create CSS files for various themes: large text, small text, sychidelic colors, ... and publish them so users can install them on their browsers (something like Firefox plugins). I'm guessing your 85 year old father gets help once in a while with is computer. That person can download and add the large text theme to his browser.

I design sites that can save people's lives, and that need to cater to actual, real-life disabled (and poor) folks (as opposed to these ideal strawmen in the books). I'd rather not make mistakes.

cmarshall, wow i don't even know where to begin. CSS involved in accessibility? Give me a break. And where did i say graphic designers are expected to deliver CSS? I'm not even going to attempt to respond to your posts anymore.
