Wait, it gets funnier. Over on my e-books site, one style sheets consists of a single line, which says in its entirety

tt {
color: #c00;
}

Why? Because it's an easy way to illustrate proofreading markup and make it stand out. You can't make your own styles, because Project Comments (Technical Term) are inserted into a page that's constructed behind the scenes in php. Same mechanics as a Forums post, come to think of it. So it's either inline CSS or ::shudder:: <font> tags galore.

Needless to say we were not happy to hear that HTML 5 is doing away with <tt> ;)
