They are using relative font-sizing you tool, setting the body to 13px gets them a base-size from which the fonts are relatively sized. Have you even read their documentation?

Also, since when is it Yahoo's responsibility to 'teach the correct method'? They're targeting the largest cross-section of browsers (and their high traffic means they're exposed to possibly the largest selection of browsers of any one site) and are doing so in the most standard supporting way they deem possible.

It's easy to sit on the oustide and criticise, but they're doing it for real, and more than that - they actually properly test their code too.

Anyway, we're probably going to go round and round here. Agree to disagree and all that.
