    Clever typeface! I especially like the quirky [a] and how it disrupts the consistency. The subtle curves in the italic are also a nice detail, as is the treatment of the numbers like [4] and [5]. It's always a good feeling to get to use a typeface with more (read: any) personality than Helvetica or Trade Gothic.
