*  Font sizes on heading elements and the margin/padding applied to these
*  same elements will vary from browser to browser. This is an attempt to pull
*  the font sizes and spacing together for a consistent look across all
*  browsers. 
*
*  There are other rules included in this stylesheet (with comments on each)
*  to handle other visual consistency issues. You do not need to use this
*  stylesheet, nor do you need to follow it exactly. You can make changes
*  anywhere you want to make things look the way you want to. Nothing here
*  _should_ break a layout if modified.
