  I can’t track down the epecific CSS to enable me to make this smaller.
  If you check my latest post, you’ll see why I want to …

  Erhmm … ‘Specific’? Yeah, reckon that’s what I meant to type. :-|

  This will tighten up the spacing between the individual lines in a list (ordered and unordered):

  .post-entry li, .post-entry ul {
      line-height: 130%;
  }

  This will reduce the space below a ul or ol.

  .post-entry ul, .post-entry ol {
      margin-bottom: 23px;
  }

  The spacing between the preceding text and the ul or ol is standard paragraph bottom margin. You can change that in the post/page editor by including a style attribute such as below (from within the text tab in the editor).

  <p style="margin-bottom: 15px;">WHAT I DO:</p>

  Or, you could create your own CSS class such as this.

  .ul-hd {
  margin-bottom: 15px;
  }

  And then in the post/page editor, on the heading before a list you would specify that class such as this:

  <p class="ul-hd">WHAT I DO:</p>

  I’ve never given a moment’s thought to creating a class myself – just to amending/adjusting existing attributes. This opens up a new path!
  Hmm …
  Mebbe I’d be being a bit too ambitious.
  One thing at a time, M.R.! – remember you can’t multi-task, any more.
  [sob!]
  (When I was Continuity, I could keep roughly 12 things going in my head at the one time: in my day, you had to, as everything was shot on film. No more, of course.)
  ANYWAY! – I shall think about it …
  I believe I probably head up the list of your fans, right now, tsp …
  You’re truly kind.
