"I'd need to do, is open up the HTML file, and remove any sort of justification tags that Word stuck in there. Does that seem right?"

Ok, I figured it out. I needed to remove the following two tags:

text-align:Left
text-align:Justify

First, I just removed the first tag from the "normal paragraph" style (can you tell I've only got the barest understanding of CSS?) and then my file showed up as full justified on the Kindle. But the problem was that it was now FORCED full justify; in other words, I couldn't change it to left justifed, via the font size menu (hit alt-j while that menu is up, and it will allow you to change the justification). So I went back in, and found the second code above in a different paragraph style, and removed that. It now defaults to full justification, but I can change it to left justified on the Kindle if I want to.
