hi,
not sure if anyone has discussed this before, this is a huge site, but 
perhaps a useful addition to the multicolumn specification is to allow the 
width of the columns, and the height of the columns to be specified, giving 
the browser the job of deciding how many columns the text block needs to 
spill into... I am attempting to design a site that gives a news story in 
precisely that fashion, that employs horizontal, rather than vertical 
scrolling.
thanks,
Jilbruke Collins
