 * This is probably a dumb question, but I can’t figure it out…
    The lines in my
   posts seem to be spaced really far apart, meaning the lines within the paragraphs
   when they carry over to the next line, not spacing between paragraphs. It almost
   appears double spaced. Is that defined somewhere? I can’t find a line-height 
   tag in the css that would apply. I tried adding one to both the p and the content
   sections and nothing did anything. I don’t know where else it would go or what
   else it would be? Thank you.

 * CSS:
    p, li, .feedback { font: 90%/100% ‘Lucida Grande’, ‘Lucida Sans Unicode’,
   Verdana, sans-serif; letter-spacing: -1px; } First % value is size of font Second%
   value is spacing. In the above, it’s very squashed.

 * Oh thank you podz! I was wondering what the figure after the slash was. Mine 
   is set at 175%, thus the huge amount…
