First, I never said that tables are obsolete! But if we are going deeper in this issue, you better read what are tables made for. Tables are used for the presentation of tabular data and not web page layout. Period.
About Vanessa, Matt and Rand I only would like to say here, that I do not take everything they tell for granted. And I am sure other experts do not either.
I cought them all telling certain stories which were at a certain point far beyond the reality.
If you want to backup something, please avoid referring me to certain persons statements, and stick on facts.
And about Bruce, I took his comment as a confirmation of my experiences, and additionally a confirmation of a Google employee. That was all.
