Generally the user is assumed to consider his/her base font acceptable,
and making it smaller will likely make it more difficult for them to use
your site.

I generally leave font sizes OFF of BODY and P whenever possible.

Then again I never underline anything that isn't a link unless it's a
nice thick border-bottom.
