In the vein of constructive criticism: there is a set of W3C-suggested accessibility guidelines that include tests for things like the contrast between text and its background (http://www.w3.org/TR/AERT#color-contrast). This page fails that contrast guideline algorithm (258 out of a minimum suggested 500) and is a little annoying to read even for someone without a sight/color deficit.

Thanks a lot. Constructive criticism is always appreciated. A redesign is on its way. This issue will definitely be taken into account.
