NYC in Webdings

Try typing NYC in Wordpad using the Webdings font. Pretty cool, huh? Now, change the font to Wingdings. What is up with that? Anything?

WEIRD! Well, Wingdings is an older font than Webdings, so maybe the creator of Webdings did that as a response to what "NYC" seems to say in Wingdings? Who knows. Maybe it's just a freaky coincidence.

For anyone trying this, use a big font size like 72. It can be hard to read with a small font size.
