Try:

html {
background : #fff;
color : #000;
font-size : 100%;
}/*to defeat IE em font-scaling bug*/
body {
font-size : 1em;
}
p.general_text {
font : 0.8em/1.4 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, sans-serif;
color : #333;
letter-spacing : -0.025em;
}



<aside>
Although this might be better, as it is not a good idea to set text 20% 
small than user default, and an even worse idea to then "play at 
pretending" you are a type-designer...


html {
font-size : 100%;
}
body {
font : 1em/1.4 'Helvtica Neue', Arial, sans-serif;
}
p.general_text {
color : #333;
}/*inherits user default font-size with no letter-spacing*/


Best,
~d
