Yes, my issue is not with the type, but the layout. Research shows that having 
navigation links on the left bar is "convention" (whereby convention is defined 
as 
something done by more than half of the sites). This means that visitors expect 
to 
find them there, and hence, we should put them there.

That's all I was saying. Move it to the left.
