Using Twitter Bootstrap with KRL

Twitter recently released Bootstrap, a library of CSS styles and set of javascript plugins to kickstart development of webapps and sites. I have found it to be a real time saver when building prototypes with KRL. Since Bootstrap uses jQuery it was easy to enhance the code to work with Kynetx KRL.
