Hello 

I am trying to allign equations thus:

blah blah blah
  some text here:               an equation
  some text here:               an equation
  this is a long piece of text: an equation

Unfortunately, using the \eqnarray* environment, it doesn`t allow
me to make sure that all of my equations start under the same
line.  ie.  In the above, the last statement, because of the
large piece of text, displaced the equation.  It seems to centre them.
The \eqnarray does not accept any parameters for this, like the
\array environment.  


Could someone please help me.

Thank you

The text I wish to typeset follows.

\begin{eqnarray*}
 reflexive:   \forall a \in D, a \sqsubseteq a & \\
 anti-symmetric:  \forall a,b \in D, a \sqsubseteq b\ and\ b \subseteq a \R
ightarrow a = b & \\
 some more text in here:   \forall a \in D, a \sqsubseteq a & \\
\end{eqnarray*}
