Yeah, fair enough - I was working on the basis of 'everyone who commented
said 2 cols,' but you're prolly right.

In the HTML (rather than the PoC), I can't see what would go in the LH
column, nor how it would be HTML coded. However, can we code it such that
we can fairly easily (ie CSS change-ishly) swap to 2 col? That way we can
explicitly make the choice later without "Yes, but it's too much work to
do" constraints.

cheers
