Where I got it from was the supplied stylesheet. The comments within also
explain why 76% was chosen as a figure.

The 100.01% size for html or body elements was/is a much practiced method
which was expounded on this very list not so long ago.

Is it just me or is there some underlying agression on this list of late?

Where did you get that from in that article?  Setting the font size to 100%
and then setting individual elements to ems is how I do all my pages.  As
far as I know it is the recommended method so users have control of their
own viewport.
