simpler reduction

I've attached a simpler reduction which displays "hello world" three times with
the following font-family's applied:
1) 'courier new', monospace
2) 'courier new'
3) monospace

In IE7, these all display hello world in the same font size.

In Firefox 3.0, the first 2 are the same size and the third is smaller (the
third falls back to the default monospace font size in prefs, which is 13).

In WebKit, the first and the third are the same (default monospace font size in
prefs, 13).

It's the first case being smaller in webkit that causes the fixed width text in
Google Groups to look small.
