Site Updates

Yesterday, I switched my posting font from Hellvetica to Baskerville. Serif fonts are more readable for longer lexias, and I find Baskerville to be a particularly eloquent font. Unfortunately, it's produced a bit of a technical glitch on my site. Apparently, the punctuation marks (apostropes, em-dashes etc.) in some of my previous posts are now unreadable in Baskerville. I haven't yet decided if I should switch back to the sans-serif, Helvetica, switch to Times New Roman (or a simiar serif font) or stick with Baskerville. I know I don't have the time to go back, line by line, to corrrect the typos in previous posts, and though nobody else in the world probably cares a bit, as someone committed to aesthetic theory, I am annoyed by the unprofessional looking typos on my website. What to do, what to do... For now, I guess, it'll stay, as is. Perhaps I can find an effecient fix. In any case, the site may be experiencing some technichal aberrations if not difficulties the next few days as I do some experimenting with the coding.
