Yes. Definitely fault of your font. Why not stick to normal fonts? Whatever this font is, it's ugly and impractical. "clicks" reads perfectly like "dicks" even in Firefox. I'm sure you'll find a volunteer with a little bit of online layout experience? I can see that you're running this on WordPress, but what I can't understand is why you'd steer away from WordPress's default (and very beautiful and practical and readable) large font? Small fonts on the web are so 2002. Otherwise, keep fighting that fight! Is there a similar group for Germany already? Eh, dicks/clicks. Yes. Definitely fault of your font.

Perhaps it's my fault for browsing with IE, but I imagine that quite a lot of the people we're trying to reach use it too. Can you sort out the kerning or change the default font? That's just a very minor point - keep up the good work, and you're welcome to my fiver a month. I had exactly the same reaction as John to the ‘dicks’/'clicks’ bit.

My hat of to Neil Gaiman, and my strongest encouragement to all who hasn't already read his books to get kicking. -m I’m glad to see that in this day and age it is still possible to find at least one person whom I can respect tremendously for both his art and his personal views.

There's a 'c' and an 'l' there, so it's as well proof-read as it needs to be. The font on the blog does make a c and an l look a little bit like a d, I suppose, although try as I might it still looks like 'cl' not 'd' to me. Either which way, the main method of distributing this was email and the font will be changing here soon anyway. It’s not a typo.
