I suggest heading to colorbrewer2.org and clicking on the "colorblind  
safe" button to find palettes that would work well for folks who are  
colorblind. Having a few alternative palettes to choose from would be  
nice; it doesn't seem like switching between a few different CSS files  
would be too difficult.

	My 2¢,
