I think giving IE6 users a _readable_ page is good enough. The pages
should generally be readable without an associated stylesheet, so that's
one solution ;)

But if you feel like IE6 stylesheet is not a waste of your time, I very
much appreciate your work here. I'm a doofus for not mentioning
style/ie-nastiness.css before, but you have found it, so all's good :)

cheers and big thank you again
