speaking of css fonts, can i pose a question?

at the risk of discouraging people who are about to make the conversion to
style sheets, what are your favourite hacks, er, methods to ensure the
styles behave properly?

for instance, out of habit i will usually do this --

   body, td, p, td p, td td, td td p
      { font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif ; }

the repetition of the td's and p's covers the failure of early versions of
netscape to cascade the font properly

any other good ones out there?   the simpler the better
