Don’t know why I stuck with that dark masthead all summer and am finally lightening it up just in time for fall.  Sometimes things just happen that way.  No real structural changes, just finally getting my act together with the CSS.

Thinking of expanding the layout here to three columns to include some new features that have become available since my last layout design.  ‘People who know’ seem to be writing online that I should also abandon HTML tables in favor of CSS for structuring the columns, but the only rationale I can find is that it might cut down the length of the code by a percent or two.  I don’t see a bunch of div tags being that much shorter than a two- or three-cell table.  Am I missing something?  Will CSS significantly improve or change the user experience?
