		In Slimbach’s case, it’s the multiplicative product of perfection and prolificacy that enrages me; his supreme skill and prodigious output are astonishing almost to the point of absurdity.
		This leads me to posit that Slimbach is nothing more than a façade fabricated by the marketing masterminds at Adobe and to assert, therefore, that he is, in all likelihood, a whole team of font designers.
		That said, the Slimbach Society’s Kepler is not nearly as ubiquitous as their Garamond or Minion, but it is arguably just as well crafted and versatile.

		I’m not sure what is the best way to determine a list of core fonts, but I know I’d be happy if you sat down with the typographers from Adobe and made the decision amongst yourselves which fonts would be deserving of becoming part of the core set for the next millennium.
		I’m sure I’d agree with whatever Robert Slimbach and the other typographers at Adobe would choose for such a set.
		By releasing a few core fonts into the public domain, the next step would be get both Steve Jobs and Steve Ballmer to include these fonts in the Mac and Windows operating systems, including them into their next system updates.
