    It's the nature of the topic.  This thread has actually been very, 
very tame and respectful when compared to just about every other 
thread I've ever seen on the subject-- and yet, it's still starting 
to veer into flamewar territory.
    I had been letting this particular instance of the debate go as an 
experiment, to see if it had been sufficiently de-fanged over the 
years and the evolution of the community.  De-fanged it has been... 
but not enough.  Perhaps it never will be.
    So we're going to have to ring down the curtain once again, and 
declare the thread at an end.  Anyone who finds gems to extract from 
what's gone before can always add them to the css-d wiki page on this 
subject <http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=TablesVsDivs>, but here 
on the list, we're done.  Thanks.
