 * I’m trying to work through your “Styles” tutorial. Before making ANY changes 
   I thought it would be useful to simply create a working version of what you guys
   wrote, so I could make incremental changes and see how they worked So, following
   instructions, I created a mu-plugins directory and the em-styles.php file. I 
   then systematically went through all of the steps of the tutorial, copying and
   pasting the code snippets, without making ANY changes.
 * I did note there were a few places where you discuss snippets that are part of
   previously listed code. I’m quite sure that 1) I ignored all of those, and 2)
   every piece of code that you provide is in my file.
 * However it doesn’t work and crashes my localhost site, with a white screen.
 * So, two obvious questions:
 * 1) What did you leave out? Is there a header or some additional code I need to
   add to what’s listed in the tutorial to actually make it work?
 * 2) Do you have a file that actually implements the tutorial in a way that you
   can simply copy into the mu-plugins folder and have it work?
 * Thanks…
