Blank. Blankety-blank.

 Blank. Blankety-blank.  

Yikes!  Here comes Arial, impersonal, vapid, straight-up-&-down-Arial.

Quick! Get a serif font going!  How about Georgia for comfort?  Your eyes 


want—no, need— a font that allows, even encodes a bit of human style.

Yes, font matters.  We grandparents love looking back at our childhood 


books with their primary colors and friendly letters—bad mistake to banish familiarity!   The Noxious-Grey Stylists have held sway for two decades and 


more now, allowing only grey walls, grey floors, grey upholstery, grey cars 

& computers, conceding an occasional teal or magenta accent pillow, 


breathlessly announcing a new trim choice:  Treat Yourself to a Touch of RASPBERRY!    [Such daring! However do they contain themselves?]


Maybe the market crash that has led to this recession will require 

a campaign of riotess color to pull us out of this Relentless Grey Period?
