style_system | Font Size Reply Form

I would like to change the font size of text written in the reply form on the comment pages, as it's very tiny now. Yet I can't figure out what code in my CSS covers that section, so I don't know what to change. I'm hoping that anyone here can help me out. Thanks in advance!

Oh, and just in case... Here's my CSS.

It's because the font size for the canvas div is 1.2em, which inherits strangely in dependent classes. Spiking a font-size into
input, textarea, select { }
seems to fix it.

(belatedly) Likely, the problem is with your browser font settings, not with your CSS. Try changing your browser font settings so that the font used for fixed-width is larger? That might help.

(I know that default Firefox "out of the box" has a very, very small font size for fixed-with font, which is always the first thing I change.)
