They might not be pretty, but they are readable.
Check out either my site, or my blog. Grab the accessibility toolbars for
either Mozilla/Firebird or IE (there are posts on my blog pointing to them).
Turn off the stylesheets.
Readable? Yes,
Pretty, heck no.
If you use HTML to provide structure for your content and not do any
presentation in them, ie making sure your headers indicate structure <h2>'s
nested in <h1's>. and your presentation is entirely in your css, it works.
For those pages which misused CSS for making content presentation (those
major overlapping words come to mind), that mixed content with presentation
and those aren't readable I agree.

It's worth noting that pages that depend on CSS positioning often aren't
readable without the style sheet.
