  Log:
  The 'clear="all"' in the leading <br /> of displaystyle equations adds horrible whitespace, so much so that students overlook equations because they think the
  page ended.
  
  Displaystyle equations already have
  
  <br /><table>..<table>...</table>..</table><br /> ... that's plenty.
  
  Removing the "clear".
