Chris,

This is a float drop, and IE has to do it when there is not enough room 
for all three columns to fit across the screen side by side. For me, 
this only occurs when the middle column is so narrow that the word 
"Wednesday" can no longer fit across. In other words, the float drop 
doesn't occur until the window is narrowed to about 545 pixels, which is 
pretty small. I wouldn't worry about it. However, if you do want to 
prevent it from happening even at this small width, you'll need to 
decide what should happen instead. A horizontal scrollbar should appear? 
At what width?
