Everything is BOLD on my screen.  I haven't changed anything and the rest of my web pages look normal.  What's going on?!

How about now? Hasn't changed for me. If it did, I know what caused it and will rectify.

I don't mind the bold but you can't bold other things .... it doesn't show up.

Would that make the entire site bold?  It is everything in bold .... not just the posts.

I believe it happened around the time the "Stop the Fairness Doctrine!" banner was introduced.

That would do it, I'm just wondering why it didn't happen to me. It's the same.

some themes acted better than others.  I suspect a lot of them have a <p> (or some such) somewhere at the beginning, which would pretty much reset font characteristics.

I was missing a </strong> close tag. Odin was using the same one I was using, the default. I don't understand why my machine was never affected.

I thought that may have been it, only because I did the same thing with a different font attribute in the footer one night. :-)

I looked at different combinations;  different browsers and different themes had different results.  but also, it seems
like there is an option under tools --> content  where you can disallow the page from changing the fonts that you  have
set.  that might have something to do with the different symptoms that we saw.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
