Comment (by helenyhou):

 Replying to [comment:14 toscho]:
 > Note that Lucida Grande has no cursive style. The browser may build its
 own cursive (ugh!), ignore the `italic` font style or choose the cursive
 from the next family in the stack. Therefore make sure Lucida is never
 used in combination with `font-style:italic`.

 Might take a look at

 the-grande-alternative/] (even though it's real late)
