[Suggestions] Some fixed width problems

Very interesting site!  Thanks.

I just wanted to send you this screenshot, though.  You have chosen to use a fixed width AND made some ill considered presumptions about font size.  The screenshot is 1:1.  As you can see, on my system, if I use a minimum font much smaller than this, the text will be indecipherable.   But as is now, a substantial amount  is cut off.

Hence, it is not a good practice to presume a specific font size must be enforced in the body of the text.  I think the problem is  because you have divs with <pre> content inside another div.   The pages without this do not have that problem.   You need to either add the possibility for horizontal scrolling, or use a dynamic width.
