I was talking to the wife about this a while back, (she's a college lecturer) and apparently Comic Sans is the easiest font for dicksceptics to read.

Hehe, no sorry - I was referring to people at work. If I get a lift from here to my flat then I can run to the station and get an earlier train to Bath. If not it's an hour of thumb-twiddling. Thanks for the offer, though!

I did my final year project in Courier. Because it was partly a script. ;)

Does it involve nudity? I would say probable. Though certain if you are carrying a gun. :D

My dissertation involved a lot of quoting from various drafts of a script. (8+)
