Is it Nola? If you're showing this off to someone, I'd go for high res, which I viewed this with first. Much less scrolling. Toggle to fullscreen with F11 and you'll have even less. Personally, I like the extra space when this site is viewed with high res.
Stepping down the text size to 10pt polishes it up a bit more, IMHO. Keep in mind that 12pt is just FP's default, not the viewer's. The viewer will have the text size on their browser set larger/smaller as they like it.
What Richard was suggesting on the table is going to percentages, in which you might set the table for 90% of the page width. The left column could be set for a fixed width and the width for the right column cell would be unchecked. If you're interested in trying this, work on an extra copy.
