Well, that makes sense.  However, it seems both Safari and Firefox are
then displaying it incorrectly.
I have an untitled list with a semitransparent background, and the
contained list items should be fully opaque (though they have no
background, they have text).  The way I can tell is that the yellow
text is dimmer inside the li tags than in the main body.

(the background image is 1.2MB, so it may take a bit to load on slower
connections
Also, this is one of my pages in full context; hopefully it won't be
too hard to wade through)
