The blogspot interface allows me to add a post with fonts. I started
with Trebuchet (hey it looks good!) and then after 3 months I checked to
see an error with IE 6.0. I cannot go back and fix 100 posts just
because IE 6.0 refuses to co-operate.

I didn't put those CSS sheets. They are developed for blogger.com's website.

I am unsure which font is being used for copyright line :-S

Well as long as my website (where I can control things) works better!
