Playing with the template

I added a new macro called <%systemStyles%> that links in the Bootstrap toolkit styles, just to see what kind of hell would break loose. But it's not actually too bad. So far all I see is that the head text is cut into by the menu bar, and it overwrites part of the crumb trail. That's easily fixed with some padding, I think.
The text of blog post nodes became too small and hard to read.
However, <code> elements look downright beautiful.
The text of non-blogpost nodes is gray, but the size is okay.
Here's a blockquote:
Second attempt at caching the attributes of a section of the outline. The goal is to handle an onslaught of hits to a single page that comes when a link gets tweeted. New strategies: 1. If there are more than 25 elements in the cache, delete the cache. Keep it from growing too big, keep from caching things that aren't accessed much (no point). 2. If we reference an item that was cached more than 3 minutes ago, delete it. Makes sure things get recalc'd periodically.
