Can you explain what you mean by 'less informed web authors', because it
sounds like you're saying people who use tables for layout are 'less
informed' which is exactly the sort of cliquey, backslapping and
holier-than-thou attitude of the tableless layout community that really
rankles and is going to put a lot of 'well informed' web authors off
listening.

Please explain why using tables means 'less informed'. Or rather don't
bother as enough bandwidth has been wasted on the subject already.
