Ahh, yes my goal at this time is to retire from my 35 year old printing and 
graphic arts business and become a 9 AM wake-up guy. My hat is off to you!

My credentials are not the same as yours  but I do have a BSE in Aerospace and 
worked in a shipyard building submarines, also did some Newsreel film work 
while 
in my 20's.

Your are right about the Zapf Chancery craze, sorta like the Souvenir typeface 
(AKA fonts) obsession of the 1970-80's. Souvenir predated but became but became 
a part of the DTP revolution of fonts with the earlyl Mac's.

Just a little history or fonts from my experience. To keep this on topic I 
guess 
you can receive emails in Zapf or Souvenir if you really want to. ;-) --glen
