The 'clear' property will clear everything within sight - including the
left column, unless we isolate 'clear' inside a container.

Float it some more. Floats isolates their content from outside elements.
Add...
#content {float: right /* isolate */;
width: 559px /* a suitable width */;
margin: 0 0 0 -3px /* note this new margin */;
}
#wrapper {
overflow: hidden /* contain the floats */;
}
* html #wrapper {
overflow: visible /* prevent old IE from breaking */;
}
#sideleft {
clear: both /* make sure the page can take a little bit of font-resizing
without breaking completely */;
}
