    Because 'a:visited' is being overridden by higher-specificity 
rules elsewhere in your styles.  Firebug shows this pretty clearly. 
As an example, the links in the navbar at the top are being colored 
by the '#nav #t-services a' rule.  That's overriding every generic 
link-state rule like :visited, :hover, etc.
