great idea!
Wish the CSS implementation would size more than just the line and it's top and bottom neighboor. More gradiations would be better.
Resisting the urge to look at the code and implement a better version..... Must Resist.
also, this only really works well in ie, mozilla is choppy. I think there's probably about 1 pixel of space between each line of text which doesn't map to anything. ahh well.
