Here are some articles as to why I chose 76% for the body font-size:

http://www.thenoodleincident.com/tutorials/typography/index.html

http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=UsingEms

The short of it is that 76% works best across browsers and font settings. If
larger text is desired, using larger em values for particular sections works
best.
