So I'm over on codinghorror reading a blog by one of the Stack Overflow guys about how CSS is super limited. Jeff hits us with a couple examples of how CSS falls short and then goes on to explore a couple Ruby gems that supposedly shine up the giant turds that are cascading stylesheets.

Jeff's 3 problems with CSS are:

1. Vertical alignment is a giant, hacky PITA.
2. Lack of variables so we have to repeat colors all over the place.

Today I got a tweet from @ChristianHudon who had seen our Lavalamp menu implementation on b4blinds.com:

So, Christian, here's how to:

First, javascript
Go snag the jQuery Lavalamp plugin and drop it in your /misc directory.
