Dr Bob, did you ever consider updating the font to a sans serif one? I see it on some of the fields but not on the bulk of the text. I still like the Web 1.0 vibe of this place, but the serif font is really dated and not so readable as sans serif.
It would be an easy upgrade (right?) :-)

PS: Nice to see you back!

Yeah...you are right. Sans Serif are said to be more readable on the screen overall (vs. in print), although I personally like several serif ones, too. Funny thing that this came up...I've changed mine in Firefox several times and and although others look good/normal to me mostly everywhere else, I always change back to serif **because** of PB. I cannot get used to this site having any other look. It just feels wrong.
Weird. I am.
My personal fav is Helvetica, but Firefox does not have that as a choice.

Live and learn... I had no idea I was seeing the browser's default font, which was Times New Roman.
I switched to Arial and it does look really weird. Seems like it's larger than before. I'll tweak it some more.
Dr Bob I guess Web 1.5 is so over, I can't even find a definition of it :-)
