Default Conditional Formatting and Blanks

I want to conditional format a range of cells. There are many in varied
places that are blank. However, when I apply CF to the cells using a less
that .5, the cell is formatted. I really want that particular cell left
alone. How do I tell Excel to leave the blanks alone?
