You might want to consider changing the name. It's not great practice to use the name of someone else's open source thing to name yours. It's fine in the tagline.

Oh. And he saved my life once. I'm not kidding. Kept me from going off the EC roof while sending a couch off.

You are quite correct. Apparently I was mis-remembering. After doing some digging, I found the incident I was thinking of: In January 2006 a freshman fell through a skylight and broke several bones: http://tech.mit.edu/V125&

Feldmeier is my candidate for the most interesting man in the world. I remember stories about how one summer while interning at Apple, he voluntarily lived under a bridge. Then there was the year he lived in one of the 2W closets while I wa

It's about the difference between designing just for 14px as well as a variety of larger sizes.

And thanks for the support. I made it clearer in the tagline.

Actually, it's because I originally matched the Glyphicons names. I was never crazy about them and they weren't terribly consistent. Tried to solve much of that in this version.
