Don't point readers to rand, point to random! And make it a hyperlink

while you're at it.
Also, when discussing order of reading, make it clear that chapter 2

do_cmd_seetext(): Clean up so we get proper nesting of <div>s. This
...
fixes a rendering problem on IE5.
General adjustments to the table* environments, including using
<thead> and <tbody>. Attempt to adjust the vertical alignment of the
table cells so that the baseline of the first cell matches the
baseline of the remaining cells: When the first cell is small and the
second cell of the same row is multi-line, the first cell was
vertically centered by default. Specifying valign=baseline fixes the
problem on IE, but Netscape seems to ignore both valign=top and
valign=baseline (even though valign is NS's fault!). Make the
horizontal alignment of 'p' columns left instead of center (for the
headings).
