CSS is amazing. Instead of using <font> multiple times, you can make a single stylesheet. I don't want to write a novel here, so I'll put two reasons.
1. It saves lots and lots of disk space. Imagine a website with 25 pages, and a average of 2 colors/fonts for each page, which is 50 font tags. With CSS, you only need 1 CSS tag, which is equal to about 3 font tags. For people with limited disk space, this can be a lot.
2. It saves time! No need to type out font tags for each and every page, just link to external css and you're done!
That is why I think CSS is amazing.
Yes, CSS. Such a wonderful thing. I officially declare this the CSS Appreciation Thread. More proof that CSS is awesome is that it's very difficult to find a site that doesn't use CSS!

Yeah, CGISpy definitely doesn't keep up with the W3C standards...
