i was avoiding this - but here goes :

i have some cells in a tabular env. that are very wide up at the top, then 
down below i really don't need them so wide.  i'd rather not have to 
insert all sorts of p{} and such (need to think more here), and i have 
seen these '\renewcommand's peppered around the internet that looked 
interesting.

i was hoping i could simply reset the width where i want as i proceed in 
the table.
