Fucking guys using tables for layout! Bad for SEO. Bad for maintenance.

I'm coming from this school of thought. CSS is a tool... one of many that a webmaster/developer should have in his arsenal... I will never get involved in the the tables vs CSS debate... simply because neither side is a well rounded argument. One is not better then the other by the very nature of what they accomplish.
They are tools... Learn how to use the right one for the right situation. You don't use a hammer drive in your Phillips head screws do you? At one point people used handsaws, and now people use power saws. You wouldn't try to hand sand something if you had a power sander next to you would you? Learn your tools, and use the correct ones.
I've been dealing with CSS layouts for close to 13 years now... before it was a fad. I also still use tables, as well as many aspects of html/php/css/asp that many fail to ever learn properly. Because something is popular vernacular doesn't mean you should hop on the fanboy bandwagon without knowing your tools through and through.
