Hmmm, this is disappointing to hear.  I wonder if there is something we can do to fix that in there or if we need to drop back and punt (fix fop).

I don't know if this could be a Publican issue or not as it would seem to me that it's a rendering issue.  Of course I've been wrong before so I'll see what Jeff and others have to say.
