formatting html

What ideas come to mind when confronted with a table in the middle of text?
     Generally, design concepts are not given much thought by most viewers... they just look at "stuff" and if it makes sense visually nothing gets said or thought about.
     Making tables can be handy to present specific information to the reader in a way that helps clarify how data is relevant to the subject matter in the article.

	WIDGETS	SPROCKETS	Total
	18	11	29
	35	09	44

     Of course, what you have here isn't connected to anything. It's just trying to see if I can add tables within the blogger posting format.
