I can't get the answer to resizing font correct and I'm not sure why. See my code below.

*so this is the code I used to resize the font for the contact-info class and ul list. I just can't figure out why I keep getting the "bummer" response.

.contact-info ul{ font-size: 0.9em; margin:0; padding:0; list-style:none;}

You're pretty close. What you have done is targeted the class of contact-info and then any ul inside that class.

What you want to do is instead target the ul with a class of contact-info.

Just switch around where you've put the ul.

ul.contact-info{ 
font-size: 0.9em; 
margin:0; padding:0; 
list-style:none;
}

Wow. I did miss that. Thank you. CSS is tricky. Me thinks.

It's a little tricky for sure. That's one of those things that doesn't seem obvious at first. Does it make sense why the two code snippets are different though?
