Well I had to look and be annoying by pointing out you've got a table
there. TBH I don't regret being a late adopter. I think there were
so many issues a couple of years ago it didn't make commercial sense.
Maybe you're more idealistic. Here's a situation I still don't know
that's cropped up on a site I'm hopefully making live today so I can
post a link later...

I have 2 columns (divs floated left) inside a wrapper div. The
wrapper div uses a background image with repeat-y so it looks like,
the left column containing less content has a height of 100%. I want
to have content at the bottom of that left column. It's not giving me
grief as it's a static site so I can code around it. But if the right
hand column had dynamic content I wouldn't know what to do.

Anthony - thanks for quoting me out of context.
