at 4:36 instructor seems to add text-align to footer, but the everything in the page gets centered. I don't understand? Is there something I am missing? Here is my workspace https://teamtreehouse.com/workspaces/12167722

So Guil is also applying width 70% margin: 0 auto to the contents of the rest of the page which causes everything else to center to when he refreshes the page.
