That's not a very flexible page at all from what I can see. The whole
idea of using ems would seem to me to favor spawning horizontal
scrollbars to keep text columns at a readable proportion. Otherwise,
the exercise would seem worthless. Educate me if I'm wrong - and
perhaps on my own newsgroup if this is deemed off-topic.
