There's a later rule (Oldstylemod.css:755) that is setting the width
to 100%.

Here's how I found that:
    * Firefox with the Firebug add on
    * Open the page
    * Click the firebug icon in the status bar (or Tools > Firebug >
Open firebug)
    * Click the inspect icon (just left of the console tab)
    * Click on an HR in the displayed document
    * See the style tab (on the right)

The rules that are applied to the selection are shown in descending
order.
