Yes to 1/
The entire width of your layout is visible in an iPad portrait mode, but not
all the height is visible.  column 1 which contains a vertical Nav menu, and
column 2 which contains content.

But in iPad landscape mode because of the individual height of each of the
<li> elements the overall vertical height of the entire Nav meun extends
below screen bottom.  I only see as far as the "Contact" list item.
"Sitemap" is below the bottom.

I was suggesting to reduce the overall height of the Nav menu so that ALL
Nav items appear on the screen when the iPad is rotated from portrait to
landscape.

I was also suggesting that your page layout is very long vertically and as
soon as a visitor scrolls down the page, following your content, he/she
looses sight of "where they are", what website they are in and how to
navigate that site.

Consider using the FIXED position property on the Nav menu so it will "hold"
its position on the page. An element with fixed position is positioned
relative to the browser window. It will not move even if the window is
scrolled.  This way your Nav menu will always be visible while your visitor
scrolls down the long content column.

re: <http://goo.gl/B2riT>

1/ When the site is viewed in iPad portrait view are there two columns: 
nav on the left and content on the right?

2/ Or, when the site is viewed in iPad portrait view is there one 
column: content followed by navigation [as in a "Piano-Roll", rather 
than an in a "Garage-Band Piano Scroll?"

3/ Either way, I get the point that some stuff is hidden from view; and, 
therefore, that stuff may not be accessible...

Thanks,
