    This is by far the best propaganda I've ever seen

    "You can't beat the Axis if you get VD"
    The poetics of that is brilliant. No wonder we won the war.

    Great sense of typography for a health notice, too. The NHS should take note and stop using Comic Sans immediately.

    David, it beggars belief that Andy has not responded to your attempt to open up a debate on typography! I will take him to task!

    I guess I'll fill in then...

    Comic sans is to typography as masturbation is to sex.

    Will that do?

    You've way overhyped comic sans there.

    It's too easy a target. David's irrational hatred of futura for example, that's a typographic issue worth discussing. That, or my love of 'eighties classics' like Gill Sans

    It has no character, damn it. It's stripped of any colour by the over use of minimal lines. Myriad Pro is a more human for god's sake.

    ah, nice to see I kicked things off here then. This will be the last time I visit this particular discussion though.
