Latin text

When Bill and his assistant were mocking up the pages for the New York Times, why on earth was all the text in Latin?

That is how desktop publishing software is set up, presumably so you can see what the text will look like but also as a reminder to replace it with English (or whatever other language you are using).

Thanks. So sad that Bill has now gone & it was weird not to see his regular spots in Sunday's papers.

Sure thing. So did the Times ever run "classic Cunningham" now, or did the paper's publication of his photos end with his passing?
