    I like some of Milton Glaser's work, but most of it does absolutely nothing for me.

    Also, I recognize that Wim Crouwel is very good at what he does and that he continues to influence contemporary typography...however, I have never gotten too stoked about anything I've ever seen from him.

    I don't think it's been cool to be a Carson fan for quite some time now. I think he made an interesting contribution and that some of his stuff from the early/mid nineties (i.e. the NIN album) was interesting, but the guys is stuck in a time warp. I'd be interested to see if he is capable of practicing strong, traditional typography.
