Font-family is a list of fonts that will be tried in sequence until the
visitor's browser finds one that is installed on the visitor's computer.

Thus, you could have
font-family:eek:utrageousfont,lessoutrageousfont,braggadocio,
elephant,boardwalk,blippo,verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;

Surely, one of those will be found on everyone's computer - but the lucky
ones will see 'outrageousfont'.
