I certainly would like to read it, although going to the trouble of making
a pdf would be a pain in the ass. I'm sure some jpegs would suffice for
simple reading/drooling purposes.

Finally a man with some sense on this list! DR are the shit and all, but
for years they've been doing this overstimulation thing over and over
again (until they switched to this whole minimalist Helvetica phase,
which I think is pretty punk). 

Vaughn Oliver is a much better designer, he can do all sorts of different
styles and still make the highest quality designs. He's my idol.
