What I do is highlight the HTML in the Firefox, Ctrl-C, then in Excel say
"Paste Special" and then "Text".

It might work with OpenOffice as well.

I can confirm it does in OpenOffice, You Paste though in unformatted text or
it fills your spreadsheet with (I think you call them) URL links to
Sql-Ledger (that in itself has uses in presentations and updating prices
etc..)
