title: Horizontally Scrolling Layouts with Flexbox + Columns
body: <p>Anyone want to help me debug a little experiment I'm working on. I want to use flexbox/multicolumn layout to get a layout similar to what you see in many Windows 8 news app, where the article(s) are in fixed width columns, with a dynamic number of columns depending on the length of the article, that scroll off to the right.</p>
  
  <p>So I whipped up this <a href="http://codepen.io/anon/pen/tcGuF" rel="nofollow">CodePen</a> but flexbox and the columns don't seem to be working together well. In Firefox, it only shows one column of each, and I can't even tell what's going on in webkit.</p>
  
  <p>What am I screwing up?</p>
  
  <p>(I looked and in Windows 8 html5 apps they seem to use grid layout, but I can't do that since it's IE only)</p>
