OT: web fonts

[Tomer Cohen]

I would suggest not to mess with fonts, as for most usages it already has
good choices for every operating system and browser. You can instead specify
font-family:sans-serif, as serif fonts are never looking good on screens
(but ideal for prints).

If you are very geeky, you can load fonts fronts from the stylesheet itself,
so you can show culmus fonts for Windows, as well as any other chosen font.
