Forget clear and float. You have enough inter-associations of information
to interpret it (*completely* correctly) as tabular data. Just do
all styling of your tables in CSS, not in the old style markup.
Whether you have multiple small tables or one big one depends on your
semantic intent -- just try to associate information in rational ways and
keep things as simple as possible.
You could also collect associated information in container div-s.
But depending of float and clear to provide the kinds of complex
associations you appear to want is shooting yourself in the foot.
