Default Frustration With Placing Tables Adjacent To Each Other

Well, I thought you wanted them to have independent row heights. If the
table content is different, this may be difficult to achieve, but you could
set an exact row height for each row in each table such that the cumulative
heights would come to the same total. Note, however, that if you are using
any borders between rows, and you have a different number of rows in the two
tables, the width of the border will throw the total off.

Ah-hah!! It worked! So far.

I have noticed that their is a slight, but noticeable difference it the
two heights of the tables. The top lines up, but the bottom is a couple
pixels are off and despite trying to resize either of the tables, it is
still noticeably off.

Is there a way to nudge them into equilibrium?
