Looking at this in FireFox 2.0 I see more problems than the one you
mention.  The event dates are shown next to each other with the event
name beneath but they overlap and spill out of your "container".  The
font is HUGE; reducing it to the smallest size on FF2 makes the events
readable but still doesn't make them conform to the column size.  They
also don't act like they are "block" elements.

Add classes to your style sheet to accommodate the parts of your cites
with different styling and include those styles for each part.  It is
more typing, but no more than styling cites with deprecated HTML tags.

An underline is an underline.  The default style for an anchor/link is
to underline and color the text blue.  This should not mean that we
cannot use an underline when it is needed.
