David,
I'm not sure I understand your question (sorry). It's true that the example I gave was unbalanced, and that therefore the main effects are not orthogonal; moreover, interpreting them requires care. That said, I interpreted the original question as having to do with the difference between so-called dummy variable coding and the deviations from the (balanced) grand mean. The question of how to interpret the latter in the unbalanced case and/or in the presence of interaction is a separate issue, though certainly important. Perhaps I should have commented on this too.
If you see another issue that I am missing here, please let me know.
Thanks,
-- Phil
