Imho if one reads a lot (like 10+ hours a day every day), one becomes very picky
about fonts, to the point of using the browser's style switch to kill any funny
fonts and substitute one's preferred one whenever possible. The Comic font is ok
but it has just a little too much 'decoration' for easy quick reading. Most
people who need to read a lot strongly prefer something like Arial Sans or
Schumacher Clean or Adobe Helvetica. All those little extra decorations add up
to the 'workload' and eventually imho one tires faster because of them. They are
ok for titles or inscriptions on diagrams or advrtising, but for content,
something simple and smooth is best.

just an opinion from someone who reads a little more than most on the www,
