Thanks Scott.  I'm not very good with php yet.
which index.php file? I think I've seen several....
  and where to add it so that my css is guaranteed to override the standard template?

Your best bet is to add a custom.css file to the template.
Then add it in the index.php
This will solve your issues, but you may have to add the line again
    in the index.php
