The text in the list is pushing the column wider than the specified 
width.  The specific culprit is the word "telecommunications."  If you set 
that cell to class .font10 or shorten that item, the problem goes 
away.  NS6 is apparently calculating the font width of of 11px type as 
wider than the other browsers are, either that or it's allowing for more 
spacing around the bullets.
