   I agree… very clever and creative. I love the subtlety and the fact that it will be lost on so many.

   That’s really great. I shared it with some other typesetters at my office.

   Hey Charlie Bing,

   What’s with the tone? It’s pretty easy to look up what kerning means and thus get the joke. So why would it be lost on people? Why do you revel in the fact that you can do the elitist wink, wink, nudge, nudge “I know something you don’t know!”

   Yeesh. Reminds me of the condescending nature of those design stickers. Sorry, didn’t mean to jump all over you - I just get fed up with jargon worship sometimes.
