I firmly believe we have to start using these libraries for any type of website in order to focus on the correct things (design, usability and interaction) instead of cross-browser css and hacks in order to achieve things over and over again.

It seems there is a great deal of people that feel CSS Frameworks are just too big and too much for small sites or single pages. I can see their arguments when thinking about a web- "page" or "site", but not when it comes to a web-"application". When developing an application I feel that a CSS and JavaScript framework are a must. I really like your point about adding a minimal amount of new, un-tested, code to the working stack and utilize these libraries as a base starting-point. I have a single page "site", my resume, online which I used the Blueprint CSS framework for; by stating with that it took me ~2 hours to develop the graphics and add my < 100 lines of specific CSS; and I know it works well right away in modern browsers, which and CSS person should know is a huge plus!
