 * I am stumped with this one. The text color:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       a.bsp-la-reply-topic-title {	/* color: #222222; */	color: #dddddd;	font-weight: 600;	display: block;}
       ```
   
 * I am trying to set it to white. But it stays black. Unless I use `!important`.
   Then it is OK.
   I am testing in Edge.

 * ok, so what is the issue with using !important? this just stops later css changing
   something you want to keep?

 * Because something using this approach just masks the issue. As it turns out, 
   I already had classes defined, I was just looking at the wrong place. Now it 
   is better.
