Nice troll, I'll bite. CSS2 supports vertical centering just fine via
display:table-cell; vertical-align:middle, which works in most modern
non-IE browsers.
Techniques like the new negative-margin float article in ALA [1] show that
we still haven't discovered all that can be done with these old 1998
specs...when browser makers bother to implement them.
