 * Once again, Hi I’m new and dumb! Please have pity.
 * How can I change the font for the overall content in a theme? What would the 
   code be? And where would I put said code?
 * Thanks!

 * Search your CSS file… it’s going to be in there (more than once I might add) 
   and it’s the font-family value.

 * I’d start with this line in the stylesheet:
 * `body { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Sans-serif;
   font-size: 12px; color: #ffffff; background-image: url(images/bh-bg.jpg); }`

 * Okay, found that. The font I would like to use is called georgia. So do I just
   change the “Verdana, Helvetica, Sans-serif” part and put in “Georiga” ?
