zeldman was wrong, fonts in pixels are user-hostile

use ems

     "Anyhow, I played about and found you can make a nice ems
     stylesheet with P text at 1.0 em, and then downsize the whole
     thing by selecting size in BODY with %, like 76%. It's simple,
     easy to change, and works for everything"
