I agree with this, but headers (as Karin noted) only accomplish part of the
job.

Reality doesn't reflect theory as accurately as it could with this issue,
but I don't usually stop just because of that...:)

This brings up the old debate about structure vs. presentation. I'm a big
proponent of using the proper H1 through H6 levelings for headings, and then
adjusting their presentation using CSS (or, ugh, if you hate CSS, then with
font tags within the heading tags).

In that way, you preserve the necessary hierarchical leveling of your
information for browsers that do not support graphical displays. More
theoretically, you preserve your leveling (which equates with "meaning") for
some as yet to be futuristic web browsing medium that puts value back on
content.
