I've always thought resetting by using a scalpel would be better than resetting by using a machete. But the problem with the scalpel is, you have to know how and where to cut. So thanks, Boilerplate guys, for figuring out where to cut!
I've never liked CSS resets, but I went through every line of normalize.css and have sinced used it on several websites, and love it. It is an incredibly well-researched and thought out stylesheet, but more importantly, every decision is justified and cited in the comments, so you can make up your own mind quite easily.
