Not sure when you reviewed the page 'cause I've been editing it live since I
posted, but it's actually working much better now than it was.  It was
dropping the float even at much wider window sizes UNTIL I changed the h1,h2
rule by taking out width:65% and adding margin-right:325px

That's now a head scratcher.  Don't have any idea why IE doesn't like the
65% width on the h1, h2 tags.  But it didn't.

Now my issue is that the floated column isn't regarding my 190px width -
just in IE again.  Don't have a clue as to why.
