A simple browser extension like Readability or Instapaper can extract the article and display it in a readable manner. That way you don't have to miss out on potentially interesting articles if you don't like the design or are distracted by certain elements on a website. It works pretty well :)
Grey on grey is fine for me, but the typeface is definitely too light with too much space in the counters (how would a type-designer say this – does it make sense to call the face too "open"?) Looks pretty though.
Open is a good term. By chance, what OS/Browser are you on? I've been trying to gather some feedback about the "extended" fonts available now via @font-face and how people's OS also play a part in that.

Sorry, but grey on grey is unreadable.
I could install custom style sheets. But now I choose to ignore unreadable pages.
Perhaps other people are also ignoring what you have to say, but not letting you know?

I don't think so. Temporary blindness or inability to read English notwithstanding, the article is perfectly readable.
At least in Firefox, you can disable stylesheets at "View -> Page Style -> No Style".
So why would anyone use stylesheets less readable than the baseline provided by not having stylesheets?
