Sorry, haven't any idea why something isn't working. W3C HTML validater 
reports invalid markup:

http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fsmmirror.jaycarlson.net%2F%3Fnoscript

You're identifying it as XHTML 1.1. IE6 doesn't support XHTML at all, I 
hear. Don't know about IE7. Outside of that, I don't know what impact 
that might have.

W3C CSS Validator reports 12 errors, 102 warnings:

http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?profile=css2&warning=2&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fsmmirror.jaycarlson.net%2F%3Fnoscript

I redid the CSS validation by pasting your CSS into the validate by 
direct input option, and it reported only 6 errors. So I don't know if 
there's something behind the "?noscript" thing that's causing problems.

I was going to guess and ask what happened if you applied your big font 
size to the list itself. But maybe see what's happening with more valid 
markup and CSS?
