&gt; At the risk of starting another &#34;tool
war,&#34; I vote for &#34;font fondling.&#34; It
&gt; has the advantage of alliteration (I've been a
fan of alliteration ever
&gt; since discovering the poems of Vachel Lindsay)
and sounds so much more
&gt; professional than twiddling. Twiddling suggests
idle, pointless, thoughtless
&gt; activity. Fondling suggests caring, focus, and
concentration -- or at least
&gt; obsession...
&gt;
&gt; Besides, Andrew would have wanted it that way.
;-)

Yes...font fondling and template twiddling are it. We
can also add &#34;single-source psychosis&#34; and
&#34;methodology madness.&#34;
