Ah, yes. You are so right, Dennis. I excitedly tweaked the styles and
found...no change. The author of this presentation did not use styles.

I've seen such formating issues before (and will again). This is not
the issue in my case.

Exactly!
Just to close out this story, I solved the problem last night by editing
the text of the slides in Outline mode. It took a while with 43 slides
in the presentation. But, I did it while relaxing in the living room,
watching a show with my wife so it wasn't too bad.
For the curious, the presentation is a Creative Commons, Attribution
