That was quite interesting. Thanks Crow.

I still don't understand why some people love Helvetica so much. It's a bit too neutral for my taste. If somebody (under penalty of death) forced me to use a grotesque typeface, I think I would pick Gill Sans instead, and I actually find some of the Helvetica derivatives (even Arial) more pleasing.

But modernists never change.

And nevertheless I found the video absolute fascinating. (I've always been interested in typography and a few of my closest relatives used to be typographers.)

So thank you, Crow!

Yes Bald Brick, if Helvetica is good or not is a matter of taste (I use mainly Arial), the video itself and the opinions and comments are worth the time.
