A nightly Firefox build and Opera render the 'Little Days' font differently
(and differently from each other).
The issue is that your 'Little Days' font is a 'normal weight' face, but your
stylesheet specifies that it should
I think this is a case of the Mac OS engine rendering fonts differently, period
as it always seems to be the case w Mac versus Windows OS.

Fwiw, the webfont renders just fine in Windows or OS X as far as I can

Hello CSS Discuss,
Is there a way to serve Safari browsers a browser specific stylesheet via

2) What about Stokely Safari hack or Giant Island (I think that's how the
successor to Stokely was called)?
