Hi everyone,
Just out of curiosity I recently pointed one of my hand-typed pages at the W3
Validator, and my hand-typed code was just ripped to shreds. Then I pointed
some major sites (microsoft.com, cnn.com, etc.) at the W3 Validator; to my
surprise none of them passed.
Doesn't anyone care anymore, or are the standards more-or-less looked at as
guidlines for web design?

So does your dislike mean that others should not be able to use it to?

No, but others should keep in mind that:
1) Flash isn't always there
2) There should be a suitable non-Flash alternative for Flash content
3) Not everyone who has the Flash plugin necessarily prefers Flash content
(I suspect a good number of people who lack the technical expertise to
deinstall the Flash plugin see it as a "crap vector" as I do)

Oh. Then why aren't we all validating to

Because IE6 is buggy and uses quirks mode for that?

No, it uses "CSS1Compat" mode for that, it uses "BackCompat" mode for:

Sure it is.
I hope you never do software development. ;) Ever hear of project
management? Requirements gathering? Designing something without first
gathering adequate requirements is a good way to produce crap. Letting a
designer have free reign to do what they like is another.

I have won numerous awards for software development, to include the
Summit Award for top software developer, and development team leader
team at MCI/WCOM. (I created the Intimate Knowledge Component IKC, which
allows applications from any platform to speak to other applications on
different platforms.)
Additionally, I have won several educational awards (from Central Texas
College) for developing tests (educational tests) for the computer
science department in PACRIM.

Yes, which is why you should not depend on crappy supported standards.
I preach, you have to understand what the site is trying to accomplish,
and the audience that you are trying to reach. Which is interestingly
enough, exactly what you are saying too.

For no other reason than the personal satisfaction of complying with the
International Standard, I have written all my Web site pages in ISO-HTML. All
markup validates to the prescribed DTD.
BTW, if the W3C HTML 4.01 Strict Doctype Declaration is substituted the Markup
also Validates to that DTD.
