It is at user default now, Chris. It looks and reads better now, Brian. I'd suggest changing the keyword "medium" to font-size: 100%; for more consistent cross-browser results. You may, as well, want to increase the width of the page and header to 990px. And adjust the #content (left column) to almost, but not quite, kiss the sidebar.
