	Chill down a bit, okay?  first, (as the OP), i did not know
	thaat there was *this** great a disparity in thee rendering
	between classes of browsers.  i used to stick pretty close 
	to the w3.org (or whatever it was).   i didn't think the
	difference extended to how the <TABLE> stuff was parsed.

	BZZZT.  letsee, that 25 trillion for Life, 3 for gary.
