Yes, there is a reference to the width of a textarea in base.css.
However, removing that reference or changing the width there doesn't
change how wide the textarea appears.

But I'd just recalled that I'm using the layout plugin, and a theme
from there had a style.css that also had a width specified for
textareas.  Removing that one fixes the problem.

Why does the width when specified in one .css file force the textarea
to that width, and the width specified in another (base.css) not?
Anyway, that question is mostly rhetorical...I can adjust the columns
of my textareas now, so I'm happy.

Thanks for the pointer to the .css files.  I'd been thinking
Javascript as what would have to be overriding the width, and CSS as
providing defaults only.
