    "I kind of believe that nobody truly cares about "text degrading", the real css role is to get rid of flash, just as firefoxes was to conquer IE"

    that's untrue. and kind of a hobbiest point of view.

    degrading gracefully for older browser and screen readers is important for many reasons.

    and, to users it is a key feature. for example...

    being able to a) see a site in a text browser or old unsupported one is great for grandma who won't/can't upgrade. and b) for disabled surfers to use screen readers and software that makes sites accessible.

    it has very little to do with the killing of flash. it has to do with content distribution on a mass scale.

    why is it so hard for designers to understand? there are more people than the less than 1% of "designers" on the web.

    let go of ego and out-dated, incorrect and albeit amateur techniques.
