How in the name of freakishness did you discover this? I mean, how many people are going to google Helvetica?

my son joel who is a graphic design student told me - he saw it on twitter. i'm sure it's one of those things that just spreads virally!

Just love the fact that you don't even have to type in helvetica, hel gets you there! Thanks

comic sans rules! art for art's sake is still art! ... I am finding this lowercase typing to be extremely tedious.
