A case of "collapsing margins"[1] in standard compliant browsers.
Add...
#content{padding-top: 1px;}
...or turn that element into a float (or use any other method to
"contain margins"), and all the top margins used on elements will butt
up against the top edge of the container and things will line up as you
want.

A better version is shown under 'Cleaned-up Source Listing with "Tidy"'
down below in that validator-report.
