Easy fix: in the body selector, change the font-size to 100%.

And while I'm thinking about it, you could deal with the line-height issue
by setting it to 1.125, without any units.

(
See Eric Meyer's excellent article about this issue:
http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2006/02/08/unitless-line-heights/ -- in
particular, the part where he strongly recommends unitless numbers when you
set it on items with descendants.)
