Two buttons are to be placed side by side in a horizonally-oriented 
LinearLayout whose width is match_parent.  To make the buttons share the 
width equally I have assigned each Button the layout_weight of "0.5".  
Everything looks good if both buttons have a single line of text, or if 
both buttons have two lines of text.  But when one button has 2 lines and 
the other button has 1 line, the two buttons appear at slightly different 
vertical positions.  They both have a fixed height ("60sp") to allow for 1 
or 2 lines of text.  How can I make these buttons look symmetrical?  Here 
is the xml:

<LinearLayout
   android:layout_width="match_parent"
   android:layout_height="wrap_content" >

   <Button
      android:layout_height="60sp"
      android:layout_weight="0.5"
      android:text="Cancel the Calibration"
      android:textSize="18sp" ></Button>

   <Button
      android:layout_height="60sp"
      android:layout_weight="0.5"
      android:text="Accept"
      android:textSize="18sp" ></Button>

</LinearLayout>

This is being rendered on a 320x480 portrait screen under Android 3.1.  Why 
don't they appear at the same vertical position on the screen?
