Default Minor/quick layout change request

In the Topics list page, Can you make the 'Started By' column slightly wider? It's just a little bit too narrow, which forces the datestamp to wrap to the next line (in the cases where it puts the actual date, instead of 'Today' or 'Yesterday'). When the datestamp wraps, it makes the overall height of that Topic's row taller and wastes horizontal space (which is already at a premium in the new layout). You could take some width from the 'Stats' column if necessary, since I find that it's only using <75% of its alloted space.

Thanks for the consideration!

What resolution are you browsing at? Can you make your browser wider?

Yeah, if I go fullscreen at 1680x1050, it makes the column wide enough that it doesn't wrap... but as much as I love s2ki, I don't want to fullscreen my browser just to view it efficiently. Even now, I've got the browser taking up ~90% of the full screen's width, and still some dates with long month-names are wrapping. Plus, what about those poor folks still browsing at 1024x768 or somesuch?

I'm not an HTML/CSS guru, but it seems like it should be possible to force the column to always be wide enough that it won't wrap. IMHO.
