Comment (by ajensen):

 I made an attempt at this with some JavaScript.  It's set up so that if
 the right column is entirely visible in the viewport it will automatically
 stick.  I started another function so that when the bottom of one of the
 columns is reached it will no longer scroll, but the other column would
 still scroll.  However, I struggled to get the columns to stick after
 reaching the end.  I tried using css to relatively position it and then
 set the bottom position to 20px, but this did not seem to work when
 testing it and interfered with the first function.

 I'd love to get some feedback if anyone has any helpful advice!
