I used ems because most of the horizontal positioning in the chapter css
is specified in ems units (a generally preferred unit anyway).
Negative 2ems aligns it with the <dd> tag of the containing <dl>, which
seems a reasonable thing to do.

It would be appreciated if whomever is responsible for the formatting of the

Specifically, the problem appears to affect the formatting of <dl> tags
subordinate to <dd>. I have no doubt I could hunt down the problem and fix
it, once I deduced the intended result. However, I just don't have the time.
...Oh hell, actually, in two minutes, I see in chapter.css:
dl dd dl {
margin-left: -180px;
}
Text positioned at negative 180 pixels to the left is somewhat difficult to
read in my browser. I assume something else is actually intended?
My first guess was that the - was extra, but removing it did something
horrible to the output. My second guess was that the 0 was extra, and
-18 was intended. In my testing "-18px" gives what appears to be
reasonable alignment. Can anybody else refute that? It renders fine
in Firefox once you change that to -18px.
