Not a huge deal. You already took out the left pane (which helps A |
| 25 |
LOT!), but would be nice if we could get it totally clean. I wondered if |
| 26 |
wrapping the text around it would cause problems. Its not a show stopper |
| 27 |
for me, but I was curious of the issues surrounding it. |

*IF* we decided to add the javascript for that, how much of a PITA will |
| 30 |
that create? Is that something that will cause more issues down the |
| 31 |
road? Or mainly a need to stay away from it because of accessibility |
| 32 |
issues, etc? |

I'm curious what other folks think about this. I want us to promote our |
| 35 |
sponsors, but I'd also like to have a clean page that renders fully from |
| 36 |
left to right. (just me though) |
