Having just read through the post that I believe you're eluding to, I can see why you said that. Talk about diluting a perfect fix.
Anywho, for those who don't know - here is the fix that houstonlively suggested - and still works to this day (just applied it) ; )
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
if you ad this to the BOTTOM of templates/base/css/general.css
p {
margin-bottom: 1em;
}
li {
margin-bottom: .5em;
}
AND delete ALL of the cached files on your server, it will work just fine.

Or, if you want to spend about 20 minutes reading through comments for other suggestions you can go to http://www.boonex.com/unity/forums/topic/Is-everyone-s-blog-format-as-ugly-as-mine-.htm
This is assuming I have the correct post that HL was talking about.
