How to I make CSS to make the background of my replies light green?

I have Firefox with Stylus. Stylus allows me to change styling, including background colors, of certain elements on a page via CSS. I can then apply this CSS to one site only, like Freerepublic.com.

I'm able to change the background color of my username on this site in a reply like this:

a[href*="chuckr163"]
  { background-color: #99d78b !important; 
}

But how do I change the background color of my whole reply but not anyone else's reply? All replies have a CSS selector of "div.a2" but I don't want to color all replies, just my own replies.

Thank you!

You could place them in a table, in which you use a template with two rows, one for the text you are replying to and another for your reply, and choose the background, fonts, etc for each. Oh I see, when I make the post I should put my text in a table. But I'm trying to do this with CSS without having to change how I post things. Stylus only changes styling of existing tags, it does not insert or delete tags themselves, so I was hoping to use Stylus and CSS.

Sorry: I do not really "speak" hypertext and was providing some work arounds.

Good suggestion, I loaded Firefox for my IPhone. Passwords were saved and worked! Now I stay logged in to FR!! Great to not have to go through 4 steps to log in each time I open safari browser.
