Reconsidering Tables

My blog layout was all CSS. Then I made a simple change and suddenly the blog content started rendering below the sidebar for Firefox only. I started monkeying with the stylesheet and noticed a lot of "fixes" for certain behaviors in IE or Netscape or Firefox.

That's when it hit me. The whole "css, not tables" movement is a false religion, whose promises are nothing but a pipe-dream. Tables behave in a predictable way on every browser. Divs do not.
