thanks, i had missed that all together
looking too hard i guess......
can this be applied as:
BLOCKQUOTE { text-align: justify }
or
P { text-align: justify }
??

that is exactly what I would love to see
i can't be sure if it's proper or not, though
i realize CSS is supposed to take care of all
the style elements of a document so it should
cover alignments, but, on the other hand,
justification is simply the proper way to align
a blockquote--so it's not really a style issue
in that case (the one i'm most concerned with)
more thoughts anyone?
