And that is why I'm trying to rethink the path that I usually take to 
solve a particular problem. It may be that most of what I've done did 
not involve tabular data and I get into a particular pattern of using 
divs, then when tabular data comes along, I don't really think about 
what I'm going to use to display the data. I very well could be 
suffering from the swinging of the pendulum the other way: So many 
people say that it's an evil of incredible magnitude to use tables for 
layouts, it becomes very easy to let it swing too far the other way and 
not use tables at all. Some developers don't have that problem, but some 
do. Finding the middle ground is often a considerable struggle.

Peace.
