I sure am glad that there are atleast two exhaustive resources... both really well done I actually prefer the font handling in blueprint… the headings just seem a bit clearer… but just personal preference!

I was not to happy with Blueprint's complicated framework when I last looked into it. But, Tripoli looks like something I could use. Great!

That is like saying you like bananas better than automobiles - they aren't really similar enough to compare. They are two different frameworks and are only the same in the sense that they are both frameworks. Blueprint has a stylesheet that functions similar to Tripoli but other than that the similarities stop (and certainly this stylesheet is not Blueprint's claim to fame). Tripoli's goal is to standardize browsers' native HTML defaults. Blueprint's goal is to define the physical layout of the page with grid-based principles. Thus, they are good for different things. Also, Blueprint is not a complicated idea. It certainly is not semantic but it is also not complicated. I don’t understand why people are saying they like either Tripoli or Blueprint better.
