I can guarantee you that the web from the 90's was <BLINK><FONT COLOR="#00FF00">less frustrating</FONT></BLINK>.

But at least there are some nice tools[1] that lessen the pain :)

I tried using python inlinesytler not too long ago, and found it didnt work well preserving some styles like media queries.

The only thing that I found worked reliably was juice[1], which is a node.js library.

I don't know man. Writing custom XmlHttpRequest methods for each browser was <MARQUEE>pretty bad!</MARQUEE>.
What do you mean by XmlHttpRequest? I have the latest version of Netscape Communicator (4.5), and your site doesn't work.
that wasn't the 90s.
Early 2000s, still felt like the 90s. Technically it came out in March 1999 for IE5.
