agreed. there is a positioning change. The bottom line and text all 
move "up" about 2 px (that's a guess) leaving a gap between the grey 
and the red-brown rule marking the main nav. The top line (rule) does 
not move.

Some quick links open with a cookie-crumb at the top of the page; 
others don't. Disconcerting.

There's "movement" as you walk thru the quick links -- because the 
main content section does not start from the same x.y coordinate each 
time (this is only partially because some pages have logos above the 
title copy). The QuickLinks menu also bounces a little, due to the 
presence or absence of the cookie crumb. [Safari and MSIE]

Ideally - the page that you are "on" when you use a QuickLink is no 
longer an active link in the sub-menu. However, it's both active and 
unchanged in appearance on these pages. When the page moves up and 
down (positioning change) -- then the mouse position in the list 
changes also -- so the wrong "link" is highlighted when the page 
changes.
