Doesn't look fine at all on Chrome 17 *nor* Chrome 19, Safari, FF on OSX/Lion.  
Terrible.   
It's not the font, but the combination of a very bad color choice and the 
impossible pattern.

I tweaked the color up from #222 to #000.

Still un readable, seems its not the colour, the texts in question are set to 
black (or green etc).

Its being caused by the "font-weight: 300;", if I bump that up to say 600 its 
perfectly readable (although it ruins the style :))
