Oh, my message! Thought you meant that it would be nice if we could do that
in HTML regardless of font. Now that *would* be nice! ;)
I remember years ago reading a reference about the easiest reading being a
17-pt font at 66-character lines, but I can't remember where (and I can't
seem to find a good font at that size -- maybe I'll have to create my own
web font with lots of hinting [as if font design isn't painstaking enough
with no hinting]).
