about having to change to G2. The truth is that the differences between
the two are not that great. The loss of single stroke characters was bad
but unavoidable. The two strokers suck but I get fewer misreads except
for the previously mentioned "L"s followed by a period or space. This
could be fixed by bringing back the old "L"s and "T"s.
Anyway here are my preferences (lowercase for G1 uppercase for G2)

For punctuation I like the G2 strokes better (they more closely resemble
the real characters).
Ultimately it is a religious issue.
