The use of leading/trailing whitespace to center text is *only*
recognized by the TW table syntax:

|this is left justified |
| this is right justified|
| this is centered |

To center normal TW text content, you need to wrap it in a DIV element
with CSS style="text-align:center", like this:
   wikify ( "@@display:block;text-align:center;centered text@@",
place );

For improved readability, you can install:
   http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#StyleSheetShortcuts
and then add:
   [[StyleSheetShortcuts]]
to your StyleSheet.  You can then use the TW CSS *wrapper* syntax
"{{center{...}}}" to control the style of the content, like this:
   wikify ( "{{center{{centered text}}", place );

Alternatively, you could set the center style for the entire "place"
element, like this:
   place.style.textAlign="center";
Note, however, that this will affect all content in that element (not
just the newly wikified output)
