Geekery, V3.0

Dave has pointed out one of the many problems with the design of this site. This is something I've been aware of for a while, but I've been putting off the kind of root and branch redesign neccesary to deal with it for ages. No longer, however. I've started a test site where I'm going to try out a few things (most of them 'borrowed' from somewhere or other) before installing them here. If you could saunter over and offer any helpful suggestions, I'll be thanking you muchly.
