Why aren’t the paragraphs in the body text flowing around a floated div [on this page in Internet Explorer ([url=“http://www.fresnobee.com/images/designs/storytest/tallphoto.html”]link](http://www.fresnobee.com/images/designs/storytest/tallphoto.html))?

The text flows just fine until the picture loads, and then it pushes all the text below the div containing the picture. It works fine in Firefox. Can any CSS gurus help me out?
