Why not now? We've had three votes for it (aard, me, and isaac, if you
count his original design) and one vote against it.
I'm not gonna get up on a soapbox here or anything, but adding the
alternating class does NOT harm anyone looking at the site. As has been
pointed out, they just don't show up for some people depending on their
monitor.
I have some very specific uses for the alternating row stuff on aeo,
and I am using it and nobody's stopping me! [ c'mon, c'mon ... nyuck
nyuck nyuck ]
Seriously. It is a departure, but it's a worthwhile departure, as are
*all* the departures on feo.
Please don't consider this conversation closed just yet.

Oh, please. Challenge us. ;p

The discussion of the alternating row style shouldn't affect the CF, so
go ahead and start chopping, Matt, but I'm gonna scream and kick until
you say alternating rows are okay. :)
