  display: flex; // or @include flexbox if you're using the flexbox mixin
}

  // align-items: stretch only works if the child height is undefined/auto!
  // slick slider's default is to give it height: 100%, which messes everything up
  height: auto 
}

// This almost works but needs some work. 
// Except, don't do it -- it's a trap! 
// Flexbox to the rescue!!!
