@stevenpemberton Yes, far more semantic. I must have a small headstone. That rule's written in stone. Holzschlag was already a non-starter.
Not bad Steven, a little more semantic than a quantum superpositioned declaration, but not as elegant. !important

@mollydotcom For your headstone, it should be #molly {display: none !important}

@fdevillamil HA! That's good. You keep that. I am happy with my Quantum Superposition approach to Web dev. ;-)
My autobiography, if ever written, will be called !important and if I have a stone marker in my memory, that will also read: !important #fun

It occurs to me that !important is the Schrödinger's Cat of CSS.

@nickalexdean Did you learn "rigor" via XML structure, syntax and refined semantics? If I'm understanding you, I share that experience.

@scunliffe You're the first person who asked for context. That's part of the puzzle, solved! You get a heart :)

@nickalexdean That's very interesting - I'd like to know more about why and how it helped you when you have a few.

@AnnykaV @stevenpemberton I *was* on the money, and how! He is very good-natured and kind. No Trust Fund Baby fumes. Cigarette fumes, alas.

@nickalexdean I'm poking fun at the XML vs. HTML5 cultural wall. Also to show that XML is still used and studied in our current Web App Era.

@ewg118 @AlainCouthures Ethan, they're not, nor should they be. Different animals! It was a joke, or at least I thought so ;-)
is that your final answer? @LucaSalvini and @Firas ;-)

Which is untrue? important = important !important = !important important != !important important = !important !important != !important

@AnnykaV @stevenpemberton My goodness. Sebastian! Where is he these days? Run off to play piano in smokey bars across Europe?

Look! XML is not dead! They're doing XForms demos in Amsterdam. Shall we alert the HTML5 precinct, or let 'em slide?

Here I sit at my desk at 0530 with a proper cuppa, working on course development. Horrible years passing, a great and growing peace within.

@dana_orourke Sally's been my nurse for 1.5+ years. I started in with the dark humor. It's a coping tool. No way would I take it otherwise!

At last, a truly heart-worthy tweet. It's also really scary to have hope. I still gotta go minute to minute, day to day. NOW: Nap xo/molZzzz
