Kevin,

Whilst you are certainly correct that CSS behaves in this way, it is not due to the 'cascade', which
is commonly confused with what you're actually talking about: inheritance. The cascade refers to
interactions between the user's and the author's style sheets, and the weighting of style rules.
Although there's a strong link between the cascade and inheritance, they are 2 different things,
despite the confusing naming.

See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/cascade.html#cascade
