The link provided at the end of this tribunal will give good example of CRAPPY web content readability.
Note to self and all web designers: Cease the use of PHP or any other content entries that do not allow the end-user re-sizing of text.

I know that anyone designing text for important web content should either stick to 14 point font or larger WITH resizable text. Under no circumstances should anyone - even with 20/20 vision - use any font less than 12 point, even if you are a lawyer!
This rule of course also applies to magazines we can hold or touch - case in point, the FuturePublishing Company's 6 point font (yes SIX) in its audio zines.
I can only hope that one day those web designers will not need glasses to read their old articles.
