I didn't think I'd like the new design for the WAS certificate, but I
do. Sadly, they use the same old crappy fonts to add the new
information. If HQ was smart, and I don't think that will happen
until at least 2014, they'd offer an optional, hand-calligraphed
certificate. Yes, it'd cost you $10 more and would take extra time,
but so? Surely they could find a calligrapher in the greater
Newington metropolitan area that needs the work (and would do them for
$5/cert).
Chintzy, I think is the word that comes to mind when you see the laser
print on them ...
