 * maybe if you try to wrap your code in an outer div…
 * .codeblock {
    text-align:left; clear:both; margin:0; padding:0; }
 * see how that goes.

 * I just client-side added this to the bottom of your stylesheet and it worked 
   fine:
 * `code { text-align: left; }`
 * (I have a great Firefox extension that allows me to do that.)
 * Did you hard refresh after editing your stylesheet? (Control + F5) Your browser
   caches the stylesheet and often any changes won’t appear right away unless you
   hard refresh.
