They don't on a high res monitor.  They stop well above the bottom of 
the viewport.

Also, can you isolate the effect you're trying to achieve?  The 
navigation links look the same on your reference page and the new one, 
so we're not sure what you are trying to fix.  The active class has a 
-2em left margin that pulls the link text over, so it's working the way 
you have coded it.  If you're referring to the missing arrow, that's 
being overridden by the a:link definition, so you have a specificity 
problem.  You'll have to remove the negative left margin or the arrow 
will overlap the text.

Have a look at the elements in Firebug <http://www.getfirebug.com/> and 
you'll see the applied styles, and which styles are being overridden.  
You can also temporarily disable styles to see the effect, like 
disabling the background on a:link to make the arrow show up...
