Hi Walt,

This is an interesting observation.  Although I do follow this list, I
confess that I'm not enough of a web guru to know whether or not the
'inferior readability of sans' is established fact.  Can you please
elaborate?

Speaking _only_ for myself, I find sans serif fonts far easier on the
eye than those with serifs.

thanks,
