I took that evil lamp completly apart this morning and found a 
frayed spot on the neutral wire way up in the head part of the 
lamp.  It wasn't all the way thru that I could tell, but it was 
pressed up against the metal frame of the lame and must have 
been leaking just enough return current to trip the GFIs.

It's all better now - thanks for the feedback everybody, I 
really spaced out the GFI outlets when originally considering 
the problem.
