Not at all in CSS, and although you can detect environment (OS,
screen-resolution etc) through scripting and inject different base-font
based on that, there's really no way or method you can use to control,
or enforce, font-size at the user-end on any OS and/or browser.
You'll also have a large range to cover, as PCs come with a whole range
of OSes and screen-resolutions and a wide range of browsers. Not all
combinations are transparent enough to be detected correctly, so you'll
probably get it wrong more often than right.
FWIW: the leading underscore only works in IE6 and older, and if users
of those browsers don't like the result they can simply make their
browser ignore all your font-sizing attempts. Other browsers have
somewhat similar defenses against "enforced" font-sizes.
