I am not so sure I followed all that, but anyway this is a simple 
version that /may/ meet some of your concerns.
One can maintain the top and bottom 60px margin. However, with 
font-scaling one or the other column will be taller-- depending on 
whether the user scales the font up or/ down.
It is not CSS that is necessarily difficult, but rather understanding 
and working with the mysteries of the Web herself that is sometimes 
daunting (but fun).

Cursory tested in IE7, IE6, Opera/9.24, and FF/whatever it is version...
