db#> INSERT INTO hates_software (tag,hate)
	SELECT 'multi-column',hate FROM peter
	WHERE reason ILIKE '%commitee%subset%general%solution%';
1 row(s)
db#> SELECT hate FROM hates_software WHERE tag='multi-column';

Committees that implement a tiny subset of a general solution

I'm not talking about "multi-column layout", I'm talking about general
grid layout. You should be able to define a complex page layout, at the

table. Including rowspan, colspan, absolute and relative widths... without
once referring to layers, iframes, or javascript.
