Please post here if you notice any problems. Patrick, I agree that the sidebars are a little tight, and I'll think about how we can address that in the future. The font -- Georgia -- is intentional, and picked mainly because it's a really easy font to read. It'll get you through those long discussion threads much faster!

When I look at the site on a wide monitor, it'd be nice to have the page fill the width of the monitor, so the sidebar comments would be easier to read. Also, is this really the font you want?

Sean has a new theme installed. It's working (two right sidebars now) for FireFox, Google Chrome, and Safari. We're still having trouble with Internet Explorer 6 and 7 -- only one sidebar shows. I'll post another update by 6:30 PM if it's still not fixed. Or sooner, if it is. We’re getting closer. Sean has a new theme installed.
