 * WP as a CMS: using Pages, can a page.php be coded so that content runs in a two-
   column style?
    Thank you.

 * yes, and thats all covered religiously in the docs:

 * I’ve read the codex regarding page.php template. I understand about making a 
   page.php template. But it is not clear to me how to make a two column Page, so
   content would automatically flow into a second column. In other words, if I want
   to limit the height of the content area on a Page and continue the content horizontally
   into a second column, how would that be accomplished? Would that work automatically
   if I used a table?
 * Another scenario: two separate divs for different content -on a Page. I understand
   that I would create two different divs in the Page template, but what code will
   bring the content into the second div? I read about query_posts, so would this
   be an example of when to use that: like `query_posts('pagename=secondcontent')`?
 * What about the Include Page plugin – would this be an easier way for a non-tech
   person (client) to change content in a multi column layout?
 * I’m not a programmer, but I can learn quickly from examples, so if you can point
   me to templates that do this, that would be great.
 * Thank you for educating me.
